Sean 'Diddy' Combs was pictured hours before his arrest on a walk in midtown Manhattan with his son Christian Combs Monday.
Prior to being taken into custody following an indictment from a grand jury, Combs smiled and posed for selfies with fans, seemingly unaware of the looming legal woes coming later in the evening.
A person familiar with the indictment confirmed the legal action against the 54-year-old musical impresario, according to The New York Times; but it was not immediately clear what the charge or charges were in his indictment.
Combs was arrested by Homeland Security officials at a midtown Manhattan hotel late Monday, law enforcement sources told TMZ, and transported to the FBI's Manhattan field office.
Authorities had planned on arresting Combs on Tuesday, 'but something happened that caused' federal officials to take him into custody earlier than planned, an official told the outlet.
Combs was clad in a long black coat over a black t-shirt with gray sweatpants and gray sneakers on the outing the the Big Apple, with a black pair of sunglasses.
Christian, Combs' 26-year-old son with the late Kim Porter, was clad in a plush gray sweat suit with a gray t-shirt and white sneakers on the outing. Christian is a musical performer under the moniker King Combs, and released the 2019 EP Cyncerely, C3.
Combs' one-time protégé Aubrey O'Day was one of the notable names to comment on the arrest.
'The purpose of Justice is to provide an ending and allow us the space to create a new chapter. Women never get this. I feel validated,' O'Day, 40, said. 'Today is a win for women all over the world, not just me. Things are finally changing.'
U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said Combs was apprehended in connection with a Southern District of New York-issued sealed indictment, according to TMZ. Federal officials had been searching the room in which they apprehended Combs, according to TMZ, citing 'unconfirmed reports.'
Diddy's attorney Marc Agnifilo released a statement to DailyMail.com which read: 'We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney's Office.
'Sean 'Diddy' Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children, and working to uplift the Black community.
'He is an imperfect person but he [is] not a criminal. To his credit Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges.
Agnifilo added: 'Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court.'
Monday evening's indictment comes less than six months after the music mogul's homes in Los Angeles and Miami were raided by federal authorities March 25. (TMZ noted that Monday's high-profile arrest had been apparently connected to the probes).
Combs, who has also been known as Diddy and Puff Daddy, has been in the limelight for most of the past year, after he swiftly settled a lawsuit from his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in November of 2023, in which she claimed he engaged in sex trafficking and abused her.
A video of him attacking her in 2016 in a Los Angeles hotel room circulated this past May, leading him to say that he'd 'hit rock bottom' and made 'no excuses' for his 'inexcusable' conduct depicted in the clip, adding that he takes 'full responsibility.'
Combs, then known as Puff Daddy, was at the center of the East Coast-West Coast hip-hop battles of the 1990s as the partner and producer of the Notorious B.I.G., who was shot and killed in 1997.
But like many of those who survived the era, his public image had softened with age into a genteel host of parties in Hollywood and the Hamptons, a fashion-forward businessman, and a doting father who spoiled his kids, some of whom lost their mother in 2018.
But a different image began emerging in November, when his former protege and girlfriend, the R&B singer Cassie, became the first of several people to sue him for sexual abuse with stories of a steady stream of sex workers in drug-fueled settings where some of those involved were coerced or cajoled into sex.
In her November lawsuit, Cassie alleged years of abuse, including beatings and rape. Her suit also alleged Combs engaged in sex trafficking by 'requiring her to engage in forced sexual acts in multiple jurisdictions' and by engaging in 'harboring and transportation of Plaintiff for purposes of sex induced by force, fraud, or coercion.'
It also said he compelled her to help him traffic male sex workers Combs would force Cassie to have sex with while he filmed.
The suit was settled settled the following day, but its reverberations would last far longer.
Combs lost lingering allies, supporters and those reserving judgment when CNN in May aired a leaked video of him punching Cassie, kicking her and throwing her on the floor in a hotel hallway.
The following day, in his first real acknowledgement of wrongdoing since the stream of allegations began, Combs posted a social media video apologizing, saying 'I was disgusted when I did it' and 'I'm disgusted now.'
Cassie's lawsuit was followed by at least a half-dozen others in the ensuing months.
In February, a music producer filed a lawsuit alleging Combs coerced him to solicit prostitutes and pressured him to have sex with them.
Another of Combs' accusers was a woman who said the rap producer raped her two decades ago when she was 17.
Another woman who filed a lawsuit, April Lampos, said she was a college student in 1994 when she met Combs and a series of 'terrifying sexual encounters' with Combs and those around him began that lasted for years.
Combs and his attorneys denied nearly all of the lawsuits' allegations.
While authorities did not publicly say that the lawsuits set off the criminal investigation, Dyer said when the warrants were served that the case was based on 'meritless accusations made in civil lawsuits.'
The AP does not typically name people who say they have been sexually abused unless they come forward publicly as Cassie and Lampros did.
As the founder of Bad Boy Records, Combs became one of the most influential hip-hop producers and executives of the past three decades. Along with the Notorious B.I.G. he worked with a slew of top-tier artists including Mary J. Blige, Usher, Lil Kim, Faith Evans and 112.
Combs' roles in his businesses beyond music — including lucrative private-label spirits, a media company and the Sean John Fashion line — took major hits when the allegations arose.
The consequences were even greater when the leaked beating video emerged. Howard University cut ties with him, and he returned his key to the city of New York at the request of the mayor.

US Treasury prepares for ‘extraordinary measures’ to avoid debt default as Trump returns to White House

WASHINGTON, Jan 18 — The US Treasury Department will start taking “extraordinary measures” next week to avoid risking a default on government debt, Secretary Janet Yellen said Friday, days before President-elect Donald Trump takes office.
With the government reaching its borrowing limit, the department would start making the moves on Tuesday, the day after the inauguration, Yellen said in a letter to congressional leaders.
That will mean Trump’s administration has to grapple immediately with the issue of the debt ceiling – the legal limit on government borrowing to pay bills already incurred.
In the past, Congress has routinely voted to lift this bar, but that tool has become a contentious issue, with Republican budget hawks calling for drastic spending reductions instead.
“Extraordinary measures” are a way for the Treasury to ensure that the US government can keep paying its bills and avoid a hugely destabilizing debt default.
On Friday, Yellen said: “The period of time that extraordinary measures may last is subject to considerable uncertainty.”
She noted there are challenges to forecasting the government’s payments and revenue months into the future.
“I respectfully urge Congress to act promptly to protect the full faith and credit of the United States,” Yellen wrote.
For now, she said the Treasury would hold off investments of the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund not immediately required to pay beneficiaries.
It would redeem a part of investments held by the fund, and also suspend added investments of amounts credited to the Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits Fund.
The funds will be made whole once the debt limit is raised or suspended.
“Federal retirees and employees will be unaffected by these actions,” she said.
In mid-2023, US lawmakers voted to suspend the debt limit after weeks of fraught negotiations, to eliminate the threat of a default.
The limit was reinstated on January 2 and set at $36.1 trillion, matching the total debt outstanding on the previous day.
During December budget negotiations in Congress, Trump insisted the debt ceiling be raised or even eliminated altogether, although he was unsuccessful at the time.
On Thursday, Trump’s Treasury secretary nominee Scott Bessent told lawmakers at his confirmation hearing that he would work with Trump to remove the limit if the incoming president wanted to do so.
He also vowed that the United States would not default on its debt if he became Treasury chief.
Earlier this month, Fitch Ratings said the United States faces “significant fiscal policy challenges in 2025.”
It pointed to the debt limit, appropriations and “tax cuts in the context of already large deficits and an increasing debt burden.”
“We believe it is unlikely that these will be resolved expeditiously because of long-standing weaknesses in the federal government’s budgetary process and a narrow Republican House majority,” Fitch added. — AFP

TikTok to 'go dark' in US unless government intervenes

After the US Supreme Court upheld a law banning TikTok if it's not sold by Sunday, the company said it would "go dark" in the US if app providers were not protected from legal action.
|
After the US Supreme Court upheld a law banning TikTok if it's not sold by Sunday, the company said it would "go dark" in the US if app providers were not protected from legal action.
The US Supreme Court ruled against TikTok in its challenge to a federal law requiring the popular video app to be sold by the Chinese company that owns the platform used by 170 million people in the US.
The ruling means that TikTok could be shut down under federal law, formally called the "Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act," as soon as Sunday.
What happens next?
If the ban goes through and takes effect this Sunday, it will be illegal for app stores like the ones operated by Google and Apple to distribute TikTok to their users.
According to the legislation that was signed into law last April by President Joe Biden after it was passed by Congress, TikTok will be pulled from those stores.
While existing downloads will likely be unaffected initially, no new downloads will be available to users.
TikTok has sought to fight the ban and has argued that divestment was not a feasible option.
What did TikTok say?
TikTok said it would "go dark" in the United States on Sunday unless the government intervenes and assures that service providers won't be held liable for breaking a law banning the video-sharing platform.
"Unless the Biden Administration immediately provides a definitive statement to satisfy the most critical service providers assuring non-enforcement, unfortunately TikTok will be forced to go dark on January 19," TikTok said in a statement.
"The statements issued today by both the Biden White House and the Department of Justice have failed to provide the necessary clarity and assurance to the service providers that are integral to maintaining TikTok's availability to over 170 million Americans," TikTok said after the Supreme Court decision.
What did the court say?
The justices unanimously ruled that the federal law did not violate the free speech laws under the Constitution's First Amendment.
The court concluded the reason for enacting the law was "decidedly content agnostic" and had nothing to do with restricting free speech.
"Congress has determined that divestiture is necessary to address its well-supported national security concerns regarding TikTok's data collection practices and relationship with a foreign adversary," the court said in the unsigned opinion."
Trump administration in charge of fate of TikTok
The White House said in a statement following the Supreme Court judgment that "TikTok should remain available to Americans, but simply under American ownership or other ownership that addresses the national security concerns identified by Congress in developing this law."
"Given the sheer fact of timing, this Administration recognizes that actions to implement the law simply must fall to the next Administration, which takes office on Monday."
President-elect Donald Trump might consider an executive order to allow TikTok to continue operating in the US, US media outlets have reported.
But it's unclear whether an executive order could halt the ban given that the order could be challenged in court.

Vendaval de renovaciones en la TV americana: ¿tiene futuro tu serie favorita?

'Tracker' y la franquicia de 'NCIS', a salvo

'Tracker' y la franquicia de 'NCIS', a salvo
Los canales en abierto de Estados Unidos ya se empiezan a preguntar cómo será su programación para la próxima temporada, de septiembre de 2025 a junio de 2026. Esto implica dar luz verde a proyectos nuevos (solo hay que ver que 9-1-1 tendrá un spin-off ambientado en Nashville en ABC) y renovar y cancelar series actualmente en emisión. Y CBS, el canal más visto y poseedor de algunos de los títulos más exportados, acaba de anunciar un vendaval de renovaciones.
La franquicia de NCIS, por ejemplo, continuará teniendo futuro. NCIS (Navy: Investigación Criminal), la serie original que ya no cuenta con Mark Harmon, tendrá otra temporada, la que será la 23. NCIS: Origins, la precuela que narra los primeros casos de Gibbs en 1991 con Austin Stowell en el papel protagonista, vivirá para producir una segunda temporada. En EE.UU. ha sorprendido: no sigue al pie de la letra la fórmula de la franquicia.
Finalmente, NCIS: Sydney, el spin-off australiano, ha renovado por una segunda temporada, una decisión factible debido a la compartición de gastos con el canal australiano Network 10 y los menores costes de producción asociados a la serie.
Si hablamos de franquicias, también obtiene luz verde Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage para la producción de una segunda temporada. El spin-off de El joven Sheldon centrado en los personajes de Montana Jordan y Emily Osment tiene 8 millones de espectadores al tener en cuenta el público acumulado: no son las cifras de la precuela de The Big Bang Theory pero sí le permiten ser la comedia nueva más exitosa de la temporada en la programación americana.
En el terreno de la comedia, la otra pieza principal, Fantasmas, también ha sido renovada. En este caso, por dos temporadas más, lo que significa que tiene garantizada su presencia en televisión hasta la primavera de 2027. Su solidez a nivel de audiencia con 7,5 millones de espectadores y su logro entre el público anhelado por los anunciantes son razón suficiente, sobre todo teniendo los contratos del reparto coral en orden (y bien pagados).
Lo que era una obviedad es que Tracker, la serie de casos sobre personas desaparecidas protagonizada por Justin Hartley, renovaría por una tercera temporada: con 11,4 millones de espectadores es la serie más vista del canal, seguida por la serie de abogados Matlock con Kathy Bates, que ya había sido renovada por una segunda.
Fire Country, el nuevo bastión de los viernes más allá de Blue Bloods (y a la espera de que aparezca el spin-off improvisado Boston Blue, como informábamos esta semana), también está renovada: tendrá cuarta temporada. Y, debido a su capacidad por mejorar los datos de audiencia de la primera temporada, la comedia de asesinatos Elsbeth, que a su vez era un spin-off de The Good Wife, tendrá una tercera.

Thomas Tuchel ist erst der dritte Trainer der englischen Nationalmannschaft, der nicht aus Großbritannien stammt. Seine Vorgänger Sven-Göran Eriksson und Fabio Capello mussten mit heftigen Ressentiments leben.
Was da auf Thomas Tuchel auch zukommt, nun, da er neuer englischer Nationaltrainer ist, konnte man am Mittwoch in gar nicht mal so wenigen englischen Zeitungen lesen. Oder auch beim früheren Spieler und sogenannten Kulttrainer Harry Redknapp heraushören, der davon faselte, man brauche auf dem Posten des Übungsleiters der „Three Lions“ jemanden mit „englischem Blut“. Was das ist?

In der Fördergeld-Affäre sabotiert die Bildungsministerin die Aufklärungsbemühungen des Parlaments, kritisiert CDU-Abgeordneter Thomas Jarzombek.

In der Fördergeld-Affäre sabotiert die Bildungsministerin die Aufklärungsbemühungen des Parlaments, kritisiert CDU-Abgeordneter Thomas Jarzombek.
taz: Herr Jarzombek, Ihre Fraktion hat der Bundesregierung in einer Kleinen Anfrage 100 detaillierte Fragen zur sogenannten Fördergeld-Affäre gestellt. Im Kern geht es um die Frage, wann Bundesbildungsministerin Bettina Stark-Watzinger (FDP) von den umstrittenen Prüfaufträgen in ihrem Ministerium wusste – und ob sie die Öffentlichkeit belogen hat. Nun liegen die Antworten der Bundesregierung vor. Tragen sie denn zur Aufklärung bei?
Thomas Jarzombek: Die Antworten sorgen eher für Verwirrung als für weitere Aufklärung. An mehreren Stellen hat der Parlamentarische Staatssekretär Jens Brandenburg Dinge revidiert, die die Ministerin bisher anders schriftlich dargelegt und auch vor dem Bildungsausschuss gesagt hat. Zum Beispiel die Frage, ob in der Morgenlage im Ministerium konkrete Aufträge verteilt werden. Das hat Stark-Watzinger bisher verneint, was uns schon damals unglaubwürdig erschien. Schließlich kommt in der Morgenlage die gesamte Ministeriumsspitze zusammen. Nun hat die Ministerin zugegeben: Dort werden sehr wohl Aufträge vergeben.
taz: Wo verstrickt sich Bildungsministerin Stark-Watzinger noch in Widersprüche?
Jarzombek: Bei der Liste mit den Namen der Wissenschaftler, die im Ministerium erstellt worden ist. Bisher hat das Ministerium immer mitgeteilt, das habe die Pressestelle getan. Jetzt ist plötzlich zu lesen, das habe der Abteilungsleiter eigenmächtig getan. Darüber hinaus steht auch die Aussage, wann das Ministerium sämtliche Prüfungsvorgänge gestoppt haben will, im Widerspruch mit einer veröffentlichten E-Mail aus dem Ministerium. Darin wird auch zwei Tage nach dem genannten Datum Druck auf einen Mitarbeiter aufgebaut, die gewünschte Liste zu erstellen. Das erscheint alles nicht plausibel. Es sind mehr Fragen aufgeworfen als beantwortet.
taz: Das Parlament versucht seit Wochen, die Vorgänge im Bundesbildungsministerium (BMBF) zu rekonstruieren. Der Bildungsausschuss hat Stark-Watzinger vorgeladen und befragt, auch bei einer Regierungsbefragung im Plenum musste sie Rede und Antwort stehen, zwei Fraktionen haben kleine Anfragen gestellt. Alles mit überschaubarem Erkenntnisgewinn.
Jarzombek: Ich persönlich finde es bitter, dass das parlamentarische Fragerecht von der Ministerin so ausgehöhlt wird. Das erleben wir auch bei anderen Themen wie dem Digitalpakt 2, dass wir keine wirklichen Antworten erhalten. Und damit schadet die Ministerin sich selbst. Das sieht man an der Presse, die Stark-Watzinger in der Fördergeldaffäre bekommt. Von daher halte ich die Antworten auf unsere Kleine Anfrage für nicht sonderlich klug.
taz: Bisher kommt Stark-Watzinger damit durch. Wie geht es nun weiter?
Jarzombek: Am Ende wird es darauf ankommen, wie die Gerichte entscheiden. Es sind ja zwei Klagen anhängig: Zum einen möchte sich die entlassene Staatssekretärin Sabine Döring gerne zu den Vorgängen äußern, was ihr bisher vom Ministerium untersagt wird. Und zweitens steht noch die Entscheidung aus, ob das Ministerium auch seine interne Kommunikation auf Wire veröffentlichen muss.
taz: Beide Vorgänge könnten Stark-Watzinger der Lüge überführen. Wie brisant die internen Wire-Chatnachrichten sind, zeigt ein Bericht des Spiegel. Demnach hat die Leitungsebene im BMBF sehr früh über mögliche förderrechtliche Konsequenzen für kritische Wissenschaftler:innen gesprochen. Das Ministerium weigert sich aber, diese Chatnachrichten herauszugeben – mit dem Argument, es handele sich um rein private Inhalte.
Jarzombek: Diese Argumentation erschließt sich uns gar nicht. Schließlich ist Wire kein Eins-zu-eins-Medium, über das eine Person einer anderen eine private Nachricht schickt, sondern wird im Ministerium als offizieller Gesprächsverteiler mit den führenden Personen im Haus genutzt. Deshalb ist die Klage hier von grundsätzlicher Bedeutung. Es gibt eine Aktenführungspflicht. Zu guter Regierungsführung gehört, dass die Dinge nachvollziehbar dokumentiert sind. Wenn aber jetzt ein größerer Teil der Ministeriumsarbeit und auch der Entscheidungen nicht mehr über eine Schriftakte stattfinden, sondern über solche Kommunikationskanäle wie Wire, dann ist das auch klar ein Teil dessen, was in so eine Akte gehört. Ich erhoffe mir hier auch ein grundlegendes Gerichtsurteil, wie eine gesetzeskonforme Aktenführung zu Zeiten neuer Medien aussieht.
taz: Gefährlich für Stark-Watzinger könnte auch die Klage Dörings werden. Die soll ja alleinig für den umstrittenen förderrechtlichen Prüfauftrag im BMBF verantwortlich sein – und will sich nun selbst dazu äußern.
Jarzombek: Es ist relativ offensichtlich, dass Frau Döring nicht einverstanden ist mit der offiziellen Darstellung des Ministeriums. Nach den bisherigen Äußerungen ist Döring schließlich der Sündenbock. Und offenbar hat sie in diesem Punkt Redebedarf. Ansonsten würde sie nicht vor Gericht ziehen, um ihre Sicht der Dinge darzulegen. Das sieht im Übrigen auch die Koalition so. Der bildungspolitische Sprecher der SPD, Oliver Kaczmarek, hat dies ja deutlich zum Ausdruck gebracht, dass er Frau Döring hören möchte.
taz: Darüber hinaus halten sich SPD und Grüne aber sehr zurück mit Kritik. Sehen Sie Kanzler Olaf Scholz in der Pflicht, Druck auf seine Ministerin aufzubauen?
Jarzombek: In der letzten unserer 100 Fragen wollten wir wissen, wie der Kanzler zu den Vorgängen im BMBF steht und ob Stark-Watzinger noch sein Vertrauen genießt. In der Antwort wurde nur auf Stellungnahmen verwiesen, die noch vor den relevanten Zeiträumen der Fördergeld-Affäre liegen. Ein Committment des Kanzlers sieht anders aus. Entscheidend müsste nach meiner Ansicht für den Kanzler sein, welche Wahrnehmung die Ministerin in der Wissenschaftsgemeinschaft hat. Dass sie dort Vertrauen verspielt hat, ist glaube ich unstrittig. Wenn aber nur noch Christian Lindner an Frau Stark-Watzinger glaubt, dann ist das zu wenig.
taz: Die Wissenschaftscommunity ist auch irritiert über den neuen Staatssekretär Roland Philippi, der laut Spiegel kritische Wissenschaftler:innen BMBF-intern als „verwirrte Gestalten“ bezeichnet haben und eine mögliche Selbstzensur begrüßt haben soll. Was sagen Sie zu der Personalentscheidung?
Jarzombek: Wenn der Spiegel-Bericht stimmt, scheint Philippi auch der Initiator der förderrechtlichen Prüfung gewesen zu sein und nicht Döring. Dass Stark-Watzinger nun Döring abgesetzt und Philippi zum neuen Staatssekretär gemacht hat, entbehrt nicht einer gewissen Tragikomik. Wir haben übrigens bei der Ernennung gefragt, ob sich Frau Stark-Watzinger mit Philippis Aussagen gemein machen möchte. Durch das Festhalten an seiner Person hat sie sich damit gemein gemacht. Das passt natürlich überhaupt nicht zu der Begründung, mit der sie Döring entlassen hat. Für die Wissenschaftler und Wissenschaftlerinnen ist das mehr als irritierend. Denn wenn Stark-Watzinger eine Art Antisemitismus-Klausel bei Fördergeldern einführen will, soll sie dazu stehen. Stattdessen macht sie einen Rückzieher mit fadenscheinigen Begründungen, wenn sie bei solchen Plänen ertappt wird. Als Bürger sollte man von einer Ministerin erwarten können, dass sie mit offenem Visier auftritt.
taz: Finden Sie, dass Stark-Watzinger zurücktreten muss?
Jarzombek: Zunächst muss sie erklären, was da genau passiert ist. Wie gesagt, es sind jetzt mehr Fragezeichen als Antworten da. Und ich finde, die Menschen in diesem Land und allen voran die Wissenschaftsgemeinde hat ein Recht darauf, das zu erfahren.
taz: Mal unabhängig von Bettina Stark-Watzinger: Halten Sie die Koppelung von Fördergeldern an ein Bekenntnis zu Antisemitismus für eine gute Idee?
Jarzombek: Ich glaube, man kann die Frage diskutieren. Es gibt eine klare Definition von Antisemitismus und die gilt auch für Forschungsvorhaben. Es gibt einen Bereich der Meinungsfreiheit und es gibt rote Linien – zum Beispiel, wenn man das Existenzrecht des Staates Israel in Frage stellt. Wichtiger fände ich aber die Frage, wo es in der Forschung Leerstellen gibt. Bei Instituten und Forschungsgruppen, die sich mit dem neuen Antisemitismus befassen, sehen wir einen Mangel und fordern hier eine Initiative ein.

Es läuft aktuell nicht rund beim SC Magdeburg. Nach dem Aus im Pokal gegen Kiel und der Niederlage bei Bundesliga-Tabellenführer Melsungen geht es nun in der Champions League gegen Zagreb. Ein Sieg ist fest eingeplant.
Erfolgsverwöhnt waren sie die letzten Jahre in Magdeburg definitiv - alle wichtigen Pokale im professionellen Handball haben ihren Weg in den Trophäenschrank der Grün-Roten aus Sachsen-Anhalt gefunden. Doch mit sportlichem Erfolg kommt auch automatisch eine steigende Erwartungshaltung. Und die gilt es in Zeiten, in denen es weniger gut läuft, zu managen. Das betont auch Geschäftsführer Marc-Henrik Schmedt vor dem Auswärtsspiel in der Champions League am Mittwoch bei RK Zagreb (18:45 Uhr im Ticker und Audio-Livestream).
Schmedt: Schwierige Phase "war zu erwarten"
Man müsse zunächst einordnen, "was in den letzten Jahren hier passiert ist", sagte der 54-Jährige im Interview mit SPORT IM OSTEN. "Wir haben in drei Jahren alles, was es auf diesem Planeten zu gewinnen gibt, abgeräumt. Dass irgendwann auch der Punkt kommt, an dem es schwieriger wird, war zu erwarten." Denn zuletzt kam der Magdeburger Motor etwas ins Stottern - wie beim knappen Pokal-Aus in Kiel oder der jüngsten Niederlage in der Bundesliga gegen Melsungen.
"Wir haben jetzt in dieser Saison schon drei Titel-Chancen abgegeben, das ist natürlich nicht alles gut", meinte SCM-Trainer Bennet Wiegert in einer Medienrunde. Gleichzeitig betonte er: "Doch wir sind ja noch nicht auf der Zielgeraden und es gibt weiter Sachen zu gewinnen und viele Ziele." Die jüngsten Rückschläge will er nicht zu hoch hängen. "Ich will das jetzt nicht schwarz malen und versuche, etwas aus den Niederlagen mitzunehmen. Das kann einen ja stärker machen. Wir werden nicht in Panik oder Unruhe verfallen", sagte der Coach.
Verletztenmiserie und Olympiablues wirken nach
Die Gründe für die Leistungsdelle sind zumindest vielschichtig. "Es kommt viel zusammen", beschreibt Schmedt die aktuelle Situation beim amtierenden Meister und Pokalsieger. Ein großes Thema sind die Verletzten, aber auch der Olympia-Blues schwingt mit. "Wir haben mit neun Spielern extrem viele Akteure abgestellt. Und das Schlimme ist eben, dass daraus drei bis vier zum Teil langfristige Verletzungen geworden sind." Auch das sei der Preis des Erfolgs: "Das gehört dazu. Wenn man eine Spitzenmannschaft ist, dann stellt man viele Nationalspieler ab. Und dann kann es zu solchen Situationen kommen."
In Zagreb wird unter anderem Rückraumspieler Philipp Weber fehlen. Nach seiner Oberschenkelverletzung wird der deutsche Nationalspieler erst Mitte Dezember zurückerwartet. "Da wird es jetzt auf den Kopf ankommen und auf den Willen", sagte Wiegert. Er stellte bei seinem Team zuletzt eine "maximale Verunsicherung" fest.
SCM braucht Siege in der Königsklasse
Dabei ist es nicht so, dass der SCM auf keiner Hochzeit mehr tanzen würde. In der Bundesliga ist Magdeburg auf Platz fünf mit vier Punkten Rückstand zur Spitze weiter in Schlagdistanz. In der Champions League thront der FC Barcelona in der Gruppe B über allem, doch dahinter bleibt es spannend. Der direkte Einzug ins Viertelfinale dürfte für den SCM aus eigener Kraft kaum noch zu schaffen sein. Vor dem 8. Spieltag belegt Magdeburg mit 5:9 Punkten Rang sieben, Platz sechs würde aber bereits die Qualifikation für die Zwischenrunde bedeuten.
Müßig zu erwähnen, dass ein Sieg im Duell mit Tabellenschlusslicht Zagreb immens wichtig wäre. Auch Schmedt unterstreicht: "Wir fahren nach Zagreb, um die nächsten zwei Punkte in der Champions League einzufahren." Nach dem 36:24-Kantersieg am vergangenen Spieltag gegen den kroatischen Rekordmeister ist der nächste Erfolg fest eingeplant - auch, weil mit Unterstützung vor Ort gerechnet werden kann.
Zagreb mit neuem Trainer
Ein eigens von Fans angemieteter Bus wird die Hartgesottenen die rund 1.000 Kilometer nach Zagreb hin- und zurückbringen, was Schmedt als "überragende Unterstützung für die Mannschaft" wertet. Der Geschäftsführer ist überzeugt, dass man sich aus der aktuellen Lage "gemeinsam wieder herauskämpfen wird." Dennoch: "Der Druck, ein Ergebnis liefern zu müssen, ist da", betonte Wiegert.
Der Gegner am Mittwoch hat derweil einen neuen Trainer verpflichtet und geht mit Velimir Petkovic ins Spiel, der vorher die russische Nationalmannschaft anleitete und in der Vergangenheit unter anderem bei Liga-Konkurrent Füchse Berlin tätig war. "Ein neuer Trainer macht ja immer etwas mit einer Mannschaft. Da bleiben für uns ein paar Fragen, was das taktisch ausmacht", sagte der 42-jährige Wiegert. "Aber das beunruhigt uns nicht groß."

Britain’s most senior surveyor suspended over role in ‘moth mansion’ sale

Britain’s most senior surveyor has been suspended as president of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) amid an investigation into his role in a legal battle over a £32m moth-ridden mansion.
Justin Sullivan has stepped aside just two months after being made president, RICS said, after he referred himself to the industry body’s standards and regulation board following his involvement in the case.
The role of president functions as an ambassador for the surveyor profession and lasts for a year.
A spokesman for RICS said Nick Maclean, currently president-elect, has become acting president while the process is under way.
The investigation and Mr Sullivan’s suspension comes after he served as an expert witness for the seller of a luxury mansion in Notting Hill, west London, which turned out to be infested with moths.
Iya Patarkatsishvili – the daughter of a Georgian billionaire – and her dentist husband, Yevhen Hunyak, had bought the house for £32.5m in 2019.
The High Court was told that the couple found moths on their and their two children’s toothbrushes, cutlery and plates of food, with the insects also landing in glasses of wine and ruining their clothes.
‘Serious infestation’
A High Court judge ruled last month that the seller, William Woodward-Fisher, the high-end property developer, failed to disclose the “serious infestation” to the buyers, and that they are entitled to a refund.
Mr Woodward-Fisher has since been handed a £36.5m final court bill.
Mr Sullivan, who was called by Mr Woodward-Fisher as an expert witness, was criticised by the judge delivering the verdict for his conduct on the stand, as previously revealed by The Telegraph.
Mr Justice Fancourt said Mr Sullivan used “flawed” judgment during the process and “was unwilling to make sensible concessions”. The judge also said Mr Sullivan appeared to only have a limited grasp of the details of the case.
A spokesman for RICS said: “This follows the involvement of Justin Sullivan FRICS as an expert witness in High Court proceedings in the case of Iya Patarkatsishvili & Anor v William Woodward-Fisher, about which he has referred the matter to the standards and regulation board’s regulatory team.
“Nick will bring his 30 years of experience at CBRE including being chair of CBRE Middle East and North Africa region and seven years as a Scottish trade envoy. He has also been an active member of RICS for over 20 years having served on and chaired the governing council.”
‘A misunderstanding ’
A representative for Mr Sullivan said: “There is a misunderstanding and an over-reaction. Mr Sullivan is a chartered quantity surveyor and is instructed in litigation as an expert witness. There is no finding of professional misconduct against Mr Sullivan.
“He has referred himself to RICS as a matter of routine. That process is confidential. Mr Sullivan has nothing further to say at present.”
RICS regulates property surveyors and valuers in Britain and has 134,000 members. It has been on a drive to rebuild the public’s trust in recent years, in the wake of a governance scandal that triggered three independent reviews into how it operates, as well as the exit of former chief executive Sean Tompkins.
In 2023, the body’s entire standards and regulation board resigned en-masse following a row with management.

An vier Samstagen in Juli und August gibt es wieder Jazz und Weltmusik im Hofgarten. Die beliebte Reihe lädt zu vielfältigen Klangreisen.
(RP) In diesem Sommer belebt die Konzertreihe „Jazz im Hofgarten“ abermals den Musikpavillonzwischen Schauspielhaus und Schloss Jägerhof in Düsseldorf. Das traditionsreiche Format bietet nun – im 47. Jahr – an vier Samstagen in Folge (stets um 15 Uhr) zeitgenössischen Jazz und Musik aus aller Welt, alles bei freiem Eintritt und unter freiem Himmel. Diese Konzertreihe – organisiert von der „Jazz Schmiede“ in Kooperation mit dem „Eine Welt Forum“ – ist eine Institution im Kulturkalender der Stadt und wird unterstützt durch das Kulturamt und die Bezirksvertretung Stadtbezirk 01.
Den Auftakt am 27. Juli macht das Matteo Raggi Quintett, das mit seinem „Contemporary swinging Jazz“ für eine dynamische Atmosphäre sorgt und von Matteo Raggi, einem der gefragtesten Saxofonisten Italiens, angeführt wird. Im Anschluss bringt die Band La Maga mit einer Mischung aus Latin, Folk und Afro-Beats südamerikanische Vibes in den Hofgarten. Die Gruppe feiert die reichen musikalischen Traditionen Iberoamerikas und mischt sie mit europäischen Einflüssen.
Am 3. August präsentiert das Leon Plecity Quintet – basierend auf den musikalischen Wurzeln ihres Leiters – eine Performance, die zwischen komplexen Arrangements und freien Jazzpassagen balanciert. Ebenfalls dabei: das Ensemble Tamala, das seine musikalischen Quellen in verschiedenen Kulturen hat und aktuelle soziale Themen im neuen Album „Lumba“ verarbeitet.
Am 10. August stehen die Tsaziken auf der Bühne, die ihren Zuhörern mit einer reichen musikalischen Palette von Balkan bis Georgien eine kraftvolle Show bieten. Danach lädt die Henk Kraaijeveld Band das Publikum zu einer Kombination aus poetischen Texten und Jazz.
Den Abschluss der Reihe bildet das Konzert am 17. August mit dem Trio Jarry Singla Eastern Flowers, das die interkulturelle Verschmelzung von Musik aus ihrem indischen Erbe mit europäischer Harmonik erforscht. Die Benny Greb Brass Band wird den musikalischen Reigen „mit einer energetischen Fusion aus Jazz und Funk beenden und dafür sorgen, dass die Konzertreihe mit einem spektakulären Finale ausklingt“, verspricht der Veranstalter.

Großbritannien: Abnehmspritzen gegen Arbeitslosigkeit?

Abnehmen, um schnell wieder arbeiten zu können und möglichst wenig Arztkosten zu verursachen: Das könnte durch den Einsatz neuer Medikamente wie Ozempic oder Zepbound zur Gewichtsreduzierung bei arbeitslosen Menschen gelingen - so zumindest die Überlegung von Großbritanniens Gesundheitsminister Wes Streeting: "Unsere immer breiter werdenden Hüften stellen eine erhebliche Belastung für unser Gesundheitswesen dar", verkündete er in der britischen Tageszeitung Telegraph.
Premierminister Keir Starmer unterstützt Vorschlag
Adipöse Menschen würden mit elf Milliarden Pfund pro Jahr mehr Kosten für das staatliche Gesundheitssystem verursachen als Raucher. Sie seien im Schnitt vier Tage pro Jahr häufiger krank, einige müssten ihre Arbeit sogar komplett aufgeben, so Streeting. Und auch Premierminister Keir Starmer pflichtete seinem Gesundheitsminister gegenüber dem britischen Sender BBC bei. Abnehmspritzen seien "sehr wichtig für die Wirtschaft, damit die Menschen wieder in Arbeit kommen." Wissenschaftler sehen das allerdings differenzierter.
Übergewicht: Mehr als falsche Ernährung und Bewegungsmangel
Adipositas ist ein deutlicher Überschuss an Fettgewebe im Körper gegenüber dem, was je nach Alter, Geschlecht und ethnischer Zugehörigkeit als normal gilt, erklärt Francesco Rubino. Er ist Professor am King’s College London und einer der weltweit führenden Wissenschaftler beim Thema Gewichtsverlust.
Vielfach belegt sei jedenfalls, dass die Ursachen ganz verschieden und in den meisten Fällen zumindest teilweise genetisch bedingt seien. So vielschichtig wie das Problem, müssten entsprechend auch die Lösungsansätze sein, denn wo ein Medikament für die einen funktioniere, könne es für andere ein völlig falsches Mittel sein, so Rubino.
BMI nicht per se ein Indikator für Gesundheit
Er meint: Vor allem die Diagnostik müsse besser und genauer werden und dürfe sich nicht nur daran orientieren, ob jemand formal über oder unter einer gewissen Gewichtsgrenze liege. Der sogenannte BMI (Body-Mass-Index), der das Verhältnis von Körpergewicht und Körpergröße angibt, könne eben noch nicht per se Aufschluss darüber geben, ob jemand krank oder gesund sei, so Rubino.
Kritik: Gesundheit statt Arbeitskraft fokussieren
Auch Dolly van Tulleken, die an der Cambridge Universität zu bevölkerungsbezogenen Gesundheitsmaßnahmen forscht, ist von Streetings Vorschlag nicht überzeugt. Die Regierung sei gar nicht in der Lage, alle in Frage kommenden Menschen mit den Medikamenten zu versorgen. Aktuell würden etwa 49.000 Menschen jährlich im Zusammenhang mit ihrem Gewicht behandelt. Dem Vorstoß des Gesundheitsministers zufolge würde diese Zahl auf mehrere Millionen steigen. Außerdem hat van Tulleken ethische Bedenken:
Zusammenhang zwischen Jobverlust und Gewichtszunahme
Allgemein anerkannt ist, dass Menschen mit Adipositas starker Diskriminierung ausgesetzt sind - in öffentlichen Räumen, aber auch im medizinischen Bereich. Francesco Rubino beschreibt diese Stigmatisierung im Vergleich zu den Risiken des Übergewichts als das "mindestens genauso große, wenn nicht das größere Problem".
Eine Studie zeigt, dass ein Jobverlust bei britischen Erwachsenen tatsächlich tendenziell zu einer stärkeren Gewichtszunahme führt, nicht aber aufgrund von Veränderungen der Ernährung oder weniger körperlicher Betätigung - sondern wegen mehr Sorgen, Stress und weniger Schlaf.
Menschen politisch den Zugang zu einer für sie passenden Behandlung ermöglichen zu wollen, sei durchaus richtig, betont Francesco Rubino Aber: "Zu behaupten, dass Adipositas eigentlich eine Lebensstilfrage und individuelle Entscheidung ist, ist geradezu böse. Das Bild von Leuten, die zu viel essen und sich zu wenig bewegen, ist vereinfacht und entspricht nicht der Realität."
Weltweite Studie: Zahl der stark Übergewichtigen gestiegen
Wirkung der Abnehmspritzen auf Arbeitslosigkeit
Ob der Einsatz von Abnehmspritzen bei mehrgewichtigen, arbeitslosen Menschen in Großbritannien tatsächlich einen Einfluss auf Arbeitslosigkeit und die Inanspruchnahme von medizinischer Versorgung hat und in Zukunft breiter zum Einsatz kommen könnte, soll nun eine neue, fünfjährige Studie im Großraum Manchester klären.
Abnehmspritzen: Lifestyle-Medikament oder Kassenleistung?
Geldgeber der Studie: Unter anderem Lilly, der weltweit größte Pharmakonzern, der auf dem von Premier Starmer veranstalteten internationalen Investitionsgipfel diese Woche erklärt hatte, 279 Millionen Pfund in die britische Biowissenschaft zu investieren.

Oil price tumbles after Saudi Arabia and Russia answer Trump’s call to ramp up supply

Oil prices have tumbled after Opec+ agreed to boost output under pressure from Donald Trump.
Brent crude dropped as much as 2.8pc on Monday to $71.17 a barrel after the oil cartel, led by Saudi Arabia and Russia, unexpectedly said it would increase production from April, initially by 138,000 barrels a day.
A plan to increase output had been delayed by more than two years but Opec+ said it would now stage increases in output, hitting an extra 2.2m barrels a day by 2026.
In a statement the group said: “This gradual increase may be paused or reversed subject to market conditions”, adding: “This flexibility will allow the group to continue to support oil market stability.”.
It comes weeks after President Trump said he was “surprised” the oil cartel had not cut prices. Last month, he used a speech to the World Economic Forum to urge Saudi Arabia and other members to “bring down the cost of oil”, linking it to the war in Ukraine.
He said: “Right now the price is high enough that that war will continue. You gotta bring down the oil price. That will end that war. You could end that war.”
The agreement of Opec+ also comes after Mr Trump showed a more favourable poise towards Russia, a key member of the broader coalition. The President has largely sided with Moscow’s narrative about the causes and conduct of the war in Ukraine and pressured Kyiv to end the war on terms favourable to the Kremlin.
Mr Trump has vowed to ramp up the US’s oil and gas production to make the US a “manufacturing nation once again”.
He has promised to exploit America’s oil reserves, boasting that the US has “the largest amount of oil and gas of any country on earth… and we are going to use it. We’ll use it. We will bring prices down, fill our strategic reserves up again right to the top, and export American energy all over the world.”
However, economists have suggested that Mr Trump’s policies on oil are contradictory, with lower oil prices undermining Mr Trump’s attempt to encourage production at home.
David Oxley, at Capital Economics, has said: “Lower oil prices will certainly not incentivise US oil producers to ‘drill, baby, drill’ – particularly in high-cost Alaska.”
While Monday’s price drop was sharp, it takes oil back only to where it was trading in December. As a result, it is unlikely to lead to significant declines in petrol prices at the pump.

Infección por ‘Listeria monocytogenes’
¿Qué es el dengue? | Síntomas, causas y cómo tratar la enfermedad
La listeriosis o listeria es una zoonosis, una infección alimentaria muy grave que los seres humanos pueden contraer al ingerir productos contaminados por ‘Listeria monocytogenes’; normalmente leche cruda, queso elaborado con leche sin pasteurizar, embutidos, patés, quesos poco curados o frescos… Esta bacteria se encuentra en la tierra y el agua y puede crecer incluso a temperaturas frías dentro del frigorífico.
Ingesta de alimentos contaminados por ‘L. monocytogenes’
La listeriosis se contrae normalmente por ingesta de alimentos contaminados con la bacteria ‘L. Monocytogenes’. La leche cruda, el queso elaborado con leche cruda, la carne cruda o poco cocinada, las verduras crudas… pueden contener esta bacteria que se desarrolla intracelularmente causando una infección alimentaria muy grave que puede llegar a ser mortal.
El grupo más sensible a la infección y a sus consecuencias son las mujeres embarazadas, que pueden trasmitir la enfermedad al feto durante el embarazo o en el momento del parto; las personas con el sistema inmunitario debilitado y los mayores de 65 años.
Tardíos
Los síntomas de la listerioris suelen ser tardíos ya que la enfermedad tiene un periodo de incubación de unas cinco semanas. Los primeros signos son:
- Fiebre.
- Diarrea.
- Náuseas.
- Dolores musculares.
Si la infección se extiende al sistema nervioso aparece cefalea , rigidez en el cuello, confusión, pérdida de equilibrio y convulsiones.
Si se complica puede provocar septicemia, infección generalizada de la sangre y meningitis.
Análisis
Un análisis de sangre, de orina o de una muestra de líquido cefalorraquídeo pueden mostrar la infección por ‘L. Monocytogenes’.
Antibióticos
Los antibióticos son la pauta farmacológica para tratar la listeriosis normalmente en asociación de dos y durante tres semanas.
Seguridad alimentaria
La prevención frente a la listeriosis consiste en seguir los dictados de seguridad alimentaria. Si un producto no ha superado el control sanitario veterinario es mejor evitarlo. También es importante seguir unas recomendaciones como:
- Mantener una higiene frecuente del frigorífico.
- Fregar adecuadamente los utensilios tras manipular alimentos crudos.
- No consumir la envoltura o la corteza de los quesos de pasta blanda.
- Hervir la leche cruda antes de consumirla.

Major supermarkets change opening times due to England Euro 2024 final

Supermarkets and pubs are preparing for a hectic weekend as fans are set to tune in to the Euro 2024 final.
England will play Spain on Sunday following a last-minute 2-1 victory over the Netherlands.
The clash is set to take place in Berlin, Germany, with kick of at 8pm.
Lidl has confirmed all of its 800 stores across England will open later than usual the morning following the final, regardless of the outcome.
Stores across the country will open one hour later, but as opening times do vary across the country customers are advised to check their local opening times. Stores will open at 9am rather than 8am.
Scotland and Wales stores will open as normal and regular hours for England stores will resume the following day.
Ryan McDonnell, CEO of Lidl GB, said: "We know how much this game means to England fans, and we want to ensure that our colleagues have the chance to celebrate such a significant moment in English football history.
“We couldn’t achieve our goals without our colleagues, so in recognition of their hard work and dedication, this move will allow them to join in the excitement and show support for the England team, and we wish them the best of luck for the big game.”
The UK’s biggest grocer Tesco announced more than 1,800 Express stores will close at 7.30pm instead of the usual 10pm or 11pm to allow employees to watch the final.
Tesco said the move would allow thousands of colleagues to get home or to the pub in time for kick-off, while still receiving their normal pay for those hours.
Tesco’s managing director of UK stores, Kevin Tindall, said: “We will be cheering on the Three Lions tonight against the Netherlands and hope they reach a second successive Euros final.
“We appreciate just how much this would mean to so many of our colleagues, and we want them to be able to celebrate with their family and friends.”
All stores would then reopen as normal the following morning, with the majority from 6am or 7am.
It comes as Sainsbury’s forecast weekend beer sales would increase 200% year-on-year, with sales of sparkling wine and ready-to-drink cocktail cans both up 30%.
A spokesperson for JD Sports said its England merchandise sales jumped over six-fold for the semi-final, having already risen by almost three times around last Saturday’s quarter final victory on penalties against Switzerland.
Pubs and bars are also set for a £120million pound sales boost from the final, trade body UKHospitality said.

West Coast forward Jack Darling confirms North Melbourne move on cards after ‘pretty good’ meeting

West Coast forward Jack Darling has confirmed a multiple-year deal from North Melbourne would suit him well after revealing his meeting with the Roos had been “pretty good”.
Darling was spotted at Perth Airport on Tuesday after travelling to Victoria to conduct a medical check with the Kangaroos as the 32-year-old forward looks to extend his career.
Though Darling is still contracted to the Eagles for next season, the lure of a multi-year deal from the Roos means he has likely played his last game in the blue and gold.
“It was a pretty good [meeting],” Darling told 10 News.
“I’m just trying to... extend my career, and look, if that’s another two or three years at North, I think that would suit me and my family well.”
Darling acknowledged it was a tough decision to leave a club just two games shy of the 300 mark, but felt he had plenty left in the tank.
“Yeah it is [a tough decision] but I know I’ll play 300-plus (AFL) games. My body is all good, so I’m durable, so it should be no worries.”
Despite the likes of Oscar Allen, Jake Waterman, Bailey Williams and emerging talent Jack Williams already putting the squeeze on in the Eagles’ forward line, Darling managed to play all but two games for West Coast this year. But he mustered just 22 goals - the lowest tally in any of his 14 AFL campaigns.
Despite his dwindling numbers, former coach Adam Simpson says Darling could still play an important role for North, particularly in helping support spearhead Nick Larkey.
“I would suspect North are looking for some experience up forward and someone to help (Nick) Larkey out a little bit, while the young forwards are coming through,” Simpson said on SEN.
“He’s got a lot of K’s (kilometres on the clock), but he’s an athlete. He’s really fit. He’s looked after his body for a number of years.
“When he’s at his worst, he’s getting outmarked. But this year, I can’t remember too many times where he had a day where he got convincingly beaten by a defender.”

Die Wismarer Hochbrücke ist laut Verkehrsminister Reinhard Meyer (SPD) die marodeste Brücke des Landes. Ein Gutachten habe nun eine maximale Haltbarkeit der Brücke bis 2032 bescheinigt. Die Planungen für einen Ersatzneubau laufen bereits seit Jahren. Das Land wolle bis Ende des Jahres ins Planfeststellungsverfahren gehen. Es seien aber noch Umweltfragen zu klären, so Reinhardt Meyer. Die 1970 erbaute Brücke ist bereits vor 13 Jahren für Schwerlasttransporte gesperrt worden. Sie wird jährlich auf Veränderungen geprüft. Eigentlich werden Brücken nur alle sechs Jahre überprüft.

El Foro Económico Mundial o Foro de Davos no consisten solo en mesas redondas, discursos y debates programados con ponentes de lujo entre jefes de gobierno, empresarios, emprendedores y miembros destacados de la sociedad civil. Hay una suerte de 'diplomacia paralela' como la que ejercerá el presidente del Gobierno, Pedro Sánchez quien participará oficialmente mañana a las 16 horas de tarde, pero que dedicará todo el día a encuentros individuales con directivos de empresas y representantes de organizaciones internacionales. Pero Davos también es una pasarela de lujo para alguna de las fortunas más relevantes a nivel mundial. No estará Elon Musk (salvo sorpresas), ni Bill Gates ni Bernard Arnault. Sí, pisaran las alfombras azules desplegadas en la estación de esquí suiza 116 millonarios, un 40% más que hace 10 años.
Como informa Bloomberg, ante la ausencia de grandes fortunas rusas por la invasión a Ucrania y la de millonarios chinos cuyo país apenas está empezando a salir de la política estricta de 'Covid Cero', destaca la presencia de estadounidenses (Wall Street) con 33 millonarios como el consejero delegado de J.P. Morgan Chase & Co Jamie Dimon, el CEO de BlackRock, Larry Fink, con el que se verá mañana Sánchez y el de Blackstone, Steve Schwarzman.
El presidente del Gobierno español, Pedro Sánchez, tiene previsto participar el próximo martes en el Foro Económico Mundial, que se celebra en la localidad suiza de Davos, una cita donde dará prioridad en su agenda a las cuestiones económicas para exponer el atractivo de España como destino de inversión y en la que mantendrá encuentros con directivos de grandes grupos industriales, tecnológicos, logísticos y financieros.
Los europeos apenas registran 18 millonarios apuntados en Davos. Entre ellos destaca el británico de origen indio Lakshimi Mittal, propietario del gigante siderúrgico ArcelorMittal con fuerte presencia en España.
Pero si hay un país que va sumando presencia en Davos es la India, que este año tendrán en el magnate del carbón Gautam Adani su mayor representante y ,posiblemente, el más mediático.
La 'diplomacia paralela' de Sánchez
Pedro Sánchez tiene previsto mantener encuentros este martes con los directivos de empresas como Dow Chemical, ArcelorMittal, Air Liquide, Qualcomm, Envision y Maersk. Este grupo naviero anunció en noviembre del año pasado, que impulsaría en España la producción de combustibles verdes (en concreto, de e-metanol) y que supondría una inversión en España de 10.000 millones de euros y la creación de 85.000 empleos.
Además, el jefe del Ejecutivo español también mantendrá sendas reuniones con los consejeros delegados de los dos mayores fondos del mundo, BlackRock y Mubadala. Además de verse también con el presidente del Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID) Ilan Goldfajn y con la directora general de Oxfam Internacional, Gabriela Bucher. El martes también asistirá a la cena que organiza el fundador del foro, Kalus Schwab, para todos los asistentes a Davos.
La cita anual en la estación de esquí suiza se celebra desde este lunes hasta el viernes 20 de enero
Tampoco se olvidará de reunirse con las empresas española presentes en Davos encabezadas por la presidente de Banco Santander, Ana Botín, el de BBVA, Carlos Torres, así como los presidentes de Telefónica José María Álvarez-Pallete; el de Iberdrola Ignacio Galán, el de Naturgy Franciso Reynés y el de Ferrovial, Rafael del Pino. Además de los consejeros delegados de Repsol, Josu Jon Imaz y de Siemens Gamesa, Jochen Eickholt.

Walmart testing new feature that makes it easier for parents to shop

Walmart is rolling out new shopping carts to help parents who have children with disabilities.
The carts, which have a large seat on the back that can carry someone weighing up to 250 pounds, can also by caregivers of adults who cannot easily walk.
Launching them at one store, bosses said on Facebook: "This cart makes shopping accessible to all family members with different levels and types of disabilities. Stop in today and see the difference our new cart will make for your family trips."
The retailer said it plans to equip all of its US stores with Caroline's Carts by early 2025, but that some locations have already received them.
Each Walmart Supercenter will have two Caroline's Carts while Neighborhood Markets will have at least one.
The carts are named after Caroline Long, an 11 year-old-girl with Rett syndrome, a disorder of the nervous system that only affects women.
Long's parents created the carts to make shopping more accessible for families like theirs.
'Equipping our stores with Caroline's Carts provides some relief to parents and caregivers who need this tool and know it's available at their Walmart,' Cedric Clark, head of store operations at Walmart, said.
'Whether they're caring for someone with a disability or a temporary injury, the carts support our customers when and how they need it every time they come through our doors.'
While some customers were pleased by the introduction others were concerned the rollout may not be enough to meet their families needs.
'Hopefully they will have enough,' one shopper commented.
'If there's only 2, there needs to be one on both sides of the store and people who don't have special needs kids need to stop using them,' another added.
Walmart has made other efforts to meet the needs of its disabled customers and their caregivers.
Last year the company expanded its sensory-friendly hours from 8am to 10am every day.
These sensory friendly hours, which were initially introduced for just the back to school weeks, aim to provide a calmer environment by turning off the radio, TV monitors and dimming some lights.
After an overwhelmingly positive response from the special needs community and other shoppers the company opted to expand the hours.
It comes after Walmart recently changed its standard carts across its 4,600 stores.
The updated shopping carts include extra features such as a cup holder, popular with Stanley cup fans, and an area to place cell phones or a grocery list.
Whilst the convenience of specific storage went down well many consumers were left annoyed by the increase in height of the carts.
The handlebars are now about 3.5 inches higher at 43.3 inches, which short people say has been annoying.
But there is an even bigger problem for short people with children. The child seat is almost 8 inches taller than in the old carts - meaning they cannot see where they are going.

‘My ex had a terrible accident. Going back to care for him has caused me heartache in every way’

When I read about Oscar nominee Demi Moore still regularly visiting her ex-husband Bruce Willis, who has frontotemporal dementia, I thought: how wonderful that she can still show her care for her children’s father.
Caring for my own ex, Adrian, the father of my children, has caused me loss and heartache in every possible way. But no matter what it has cost, I will always maintain my support for him and uphold the values that matter to me.
I met Adrian in 1990 through our work in fashion retail. We became good friends initially, but after a few months he plucked up the courage to ask me out for dinner.
After dating for a while, we bought a flat in Hampstead together, and within a year, we had our first daughter, Kirstie. I’ll always remember pushing her down the road to meet my friends for a coffee. The smell of lilacs still reminds me of that moment, thinking, “I’ve never been so happy”. Of course, I had no idea of what was to come.
By 1993, we’d had Holly, and we moved to Harpenden. The girls loved our cottage – we held birthday parties in the garden and made dens in the woods opposite.
When Adrian was made redundant, we decided to open our own shop, but three years in the business was struggling and we had to close it down after discovering that our accountant hadn’t been paying tax. We were left in huge debt – bailiffs would come and sit outside the house, which we had to sell.
Adrian became very depressed and angry. He later admitted his behaviour was driven by guilt over letting us down, and anger with himself for having ploughed all his money into a business that failed. He felt emasculated and took it out on me and the girls. It all took its toll, and five years later, I asked for a separation – we’d lost our closeness and stability, but there was no animosity, just sadness.
I moved to a new house with our daughters and Adrian moved into a rented cottage nearby. We remained friendly and he would come round to see the girls, mow the lawn, and sometimes stay for dinner. We got on much better as friends.
But a few years later, in July 2015, Adrian fell off a broken ladder while cutting wisteria at his cottage. It happened on the day he was meant to be coming round to collect the girls. Holly said, “Mum, Dad’s never late to pick us up – where is he?” I phoned him and he didn’t answer.
As the hours went by, the girls became hysterical. I phoned again and again and, eventually, someone from St John Ambulance answered. Adrian was in hospital in Luton. “He’s had a severe accident,” they said. “We don’t know if he’ll be disabled, or…”
I drove our two crying girls to the hospital, then he was transferred to Addenbrooke’s in Cambridge, where he stayed for six months. He had injured the frontal lobe of his brain and was suffering from post-traumatic amnesia.
To this day, he doesn’t remember any of it - but he was shouting, trying to escape. I’d visit, and five minutes after I left, he would be phoning and asking me: “Why aren’t you coming?”
The company that he was working for dismissed him and, overnight, he went from being a very hard-working director of design and buying to being unemployed. I was horrified by their lack of support, which started my quest to advocate for Adrian.
I couldn’t bear to see someone who I cared about being treated like that, and I fought to get justice for him, to restore his sense of dignity. I organised all the family visits to see him in the hospital, and I visited nearly every day, taking him clean clothes and making sure that he was eating.
He was moved to a rehabilitation centre, an awful place with bars at the windows. Adrian became frustrated and angry, which led to him being sectioned. Again, I advocated for him, meeting with the social workers on his behalf. Following his release, he came to stay with us until he was well enough to manage on his own.
There was nobody else who could offer care. I wanted to, but I also felt morally compelled to look after him. He was my children’s father.
When he emerged from the amnesia, he had become a different person – it’s a bit like dementia, and he has no filter. Kirstie and I were buying a laptop and we found Adrian with the sales assistant, telling them, “I’ve got an auntie in Australia…” Or he’d send the girls music from Cats the Musical at midnight. He had become this very naive, quirky man.
Because he couldn’t work, or get a mortgage, he moved to Yorkshire where he could afford to buy outright. Now, he spends all day on his laptop, watching old episodes of Dinnerladies, or the film Mamma Mia!, and he doesn’t look after himself properly.
I helped out initially with his disability benefits, arranged meetings with social services, and got mobility aids and stair rails sorted. I’ve also organised practical things such as chiropodist appointments, and I’ve cleaned the house.
I even moved to Yorkshire in 2020, with a new partner, but it didn’t work out. Ultimately, it was a terrible relationship, and just over a year later, I left and moved back to Harpenden.
Adrian was recently diagnosed with kidney failure and was admitted to hospital on dialysis. This time, going up to see him in Yorkshire and look after the house was easy, because I was free to make those choices.
He always says that my twice-weekly phone calls, when we have a chat and go down memory lane, are the highlight of his week. There are many days when he hasn’t spoken to a single soul. That really breaks my heart.
He’s very caring of me as well. He’ll say, “you’re working too hard”. I can’t visit as much as I would like now because even though I’m 68, I work full-time as a regional charity manager in Bedfordshire. But he came down at Christmas and he’s got an open invitation to come and stay.
Adrian and I are now both living alone, but I’ll always know that I’ve done the right thing in my care and compassion for my ex-partner and the father of my children. It’s been tough in so many ways, but I don’t have a single regret. I’m very glad that I chose to care for Adrian – and I’ll always be there for him, no matter what.

La sentencia estima la demanda de la inquilina y condena al fondo propietario del piso a pagar las costas del procedimiento
El Juzgado de Primera Instancia 31 de Barcelona ha anulado por abusivas siete cláusulas y las adendas del contrato de alquiler a una inquilina de Granollers (Barcelona) que demandó al fondo inmobiliario Azora, propietario de la vivienda.
La sentencia, consultada por Europa Press, y que es recurrible ante la Audiencia de Barcelona, estima la demanda de la mujer y condena al fondo a pagar las costas del procedimiento.
En concreto, ha declarado abusiva la cláusula que permitía retener la fianza, la que imponía una penalización por demora en el desalojo (el triple de la renta diaria por cada día de retraso), y la que renunciaba a derechos en caso de que se interrumpiera un suministro por causas ajenas al arrendador.
También ha anulado la cláusula que fijaba el derecho del propietario a hacer visitas periódicas para comprobar el estado de la vivienda, la que estipulaba la resolución por incumplimientos no esenciales, la que imponía gastos por incumplimiento y la que afirmaba que todas las cláusulas del contrato se habían negociado individualmente.
Sentencia pionera
El Colectivo Ronda, que representa a la demandante, ha valorado en un comunicado tras conocerse la sentencia que «por primera vez, un juzgado de España ha condenado la inclusión de cláusulas abusivas y que generan desequilibrios entre arrendadores y arrendatarios en los contratos de alquiler».
El despacho de abogados ha calificado la sentencia de «pionera y de gran trascendencia» y ha recordado que el fondo quería aplicar una actualización de la renta del 30%, lo que hubiera supuesto pasar de los 690 euros mensuales de alquiler que firmó en 2020 a unos 1.100 euros.
Para el Sindicat de Llogateres, que interpuso la demanda en representación de la inquilina afectada, esta sentencia «abre las puertas a cambiar el futuro de miles de personas afectadas por estas cláusulas en sus contratos de alquiler», ha afirmado en un comunicado.

NEW YORK (AP) - Delegates at the Democratic National Convention are set to vote Monday night on their 2024 party platform, which lays out familiar priorities for the party but wrongly names President Joe Biden as the candidate running for reelection.
The largely ceremonial vote at Chicago's convention will signal the party coalescing around a singular vision for the next four years - though a somewhat outdated one, as Vice President Kamala Harris has only outlined a few of her own specific policy positions since she took over the Democratic presidential ticket last month.
The Democratic National Committee on Sunday said the more than 90-page document "makes a strong statement about the historic work that President Biden and Vice President Harris have accomplished hand-in-hand, and offers a vision for a progressive agenda that we can build on as a nation and as a Party as we head into the next four years."
The party said its platform committee voted to approve the platform on July 16, days before Biden bowed out of the race and endorsed Harris on July 21. As a result, the document repeatedly refers to Biden's second term and his administration's accomplishments. It mentions Harris' work as vice president but does not describe her candidacy or go into detail on her views on key issues.
Harris has talked generally about supporting the Biden administration´s key goals, which are more or less endorsed in the platform as written.
The platform calls for restoring abortion rights nationwide, continuing to advance green energy initiatives that can create jobs and help slow climate change, capping low-income families´ child care costs and urging Congress to approve a pathway to U.S. citizenship for "long-term" people in the country illegally.
It also says Israel´s right to defend itself is "ironclad" while endorsing the Biden administration´s efforts to broker a lasting cease-fire deal that could suspend the fighting between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
Harris laid out a string of new economic proposals last week but otherwise hasn´t released a detailed list of her policy positions since taking over the top of the Democratic ticket. Her campaign aides have suggested she no longer adheres to some of the more liberal positions she took during her first run for president in 2020, including endorsing a ban on hydraulic fracturing.
In any event, candidates are not bound to adhere to their party's platform and often don't.

Auch wenn Milan Widder Felix Conradi und Yahya Jaouhari befreundet sind, wollen die drei Jugendlichen jedes Rennen gewinnen. Beim SFD’75 trainieren sie zusammen.
Felix, Milan und Yahya sind ziemlich beste Freunde – und ihre verschworene Gemeinschaft hat selbst dann noch Bestand, wenn die drei Lauftalente aus der Leichtathletikabteilung beim SFD‘75 in Wettbewerben – wie jüngst bei der Kö-Meile – zu Konkurrenten werden. „Da will jeder Erster sein“, verrät Felix Conradi, der sich Yahya Jaouhari, dem Schnellsten des Trios, bei dessen Siegeslauf auf Düsseldorfs Pracht-Boulevard einmal mehr geschlagen geben musste – „nur knapp als Zweitplatzierter“, wie der 16-Jährige aus Holthausen ausdrücklich betont.
„Wir pushen uns gegenseitig, ob im Training oder im Wettbewerb, und werden so immer besser“, ergänzt der gleichaltrige Milan Widder. Seit vier Jahren ist der Elleraner bei den Sportfreunden auf den Mittel- und Langstrecken unterwegs: 800, 5000 und 10.000 Meter. Wobei Milan – nicht anders als Felix und Yahya – den Kick liebt, als Leichtathlet immer wieder an seine Grenzen zu gelangen und diese zu überschreiten. „Nach 500 Metern wird es echt hart“, beschreibt Felix. Dann laute die Devise einfach nur: durchbeißen, wie der Oberstufenschüler am Kobi mit den Lieblingsfächern Sport und Geschichte einräumt. „Ehrgeiz eint uns“, betont Yahya (15) aus Hassels die sportliche Gemeinsamkeit. Der Zehntklässler an der Theodor-Litt-Realschule in Benrath verrät sogar seinen großen persönlichen Traum, nämlich 2028 bei den Olympischen Spielen in Los Angelos dabei und erfolgreich zu sein – wie einst der marokkanische Doppelolympiasieger Hicham El Guerrouj – sein Vorbild.
Auch jenseits der Tartanbahn verbringt das Lauf-Trio viel Zeit miteinander. „Wir treffen uns oft privat“, sagt Milan – und auch dann sind, nicht anders als im Training und bei Wettkämpfen, Spaß und gute Laune untereinander angesagt. „Wir reden viel und lachen viel “, bestätigen Felix, Milan und Yahya einstimmig. Eislaufen in der Benrather Eissporthalle gehört beispielsweise zu den gemeinsamen Aktivitäten oder ganz lockeres Basketballspielen im Sportpark Niederheid

Singapore’s public urination cases and the broken windows theory

JANUARY 18 — When I read about the public urination cases in Singapore’s MRT stations (three in about a week!), the one thing that immediately came to mind from my university days was the broken windows theory.
TLDR: This theory states that visible signs of neglect or defiance or just bad behaviour within an environment can and will promote further anti-social and even criminal behaviour.
The idea is that if a window in a building is broken and left unrepaired, people walking by will conclude that no one cares, leading to more windows being broken, and eventually, more serious crimes.
I recall reading a story about former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani telling his team about a burnt car in a back alley somewhere on whatever street but he would not tell them where.
They had to find and deal with it because the more abandoned cars there are in a city, the more such cars will appear over time.
We can see this theory in operation in any office where people slack off without reprimand, contributing to an overall culture of inefficiency, delays, etc.
You could also argue that Malaysia’s severe problem with traffic accidents caused by lorries has a similar basis i.e. so many lorry operators see other lorries and operators going around with minimum or zero checks, maintenance, driver-vetting, etc such that nobody’s really motivated to fix any problems, until dangerous lorries become endemic.
With the Singapore MRT urinating cases, I’m sure I’m not the only one surprised at the fact that these incidents could happen at all.
The irony is you almost never hear of such things happening in Malaysian train stations but now it’s happened three times in a place like Singapore where — as the whole world knows — community culture and standards of rigorous cleanliness and efficiency are matters of national pride.
Interestingly, when I was in Singapore’s Chinatown in December last year I also noticed a lot of trash lying around; beer bottles randomly placed, messy tables at restaurants which spilled out onto the sidewalk, etc.
So perhaps, in line with the broken windows theory, it’s not surprising that the first public urination case happened at Outram Park (a stone’s throw away from Chinatown).
On the other hand, other places I visited in Singapore like Clarke Quay, Orchard Road and, of course, Marina Bay Sands were spotless.
I hope the Singapore authorities don’t make the mistake of closely monitoring only these high-profile places and ignoring the less popular stations.
But moving on from Singapore’s public urination cases, what about our own country?
How many broken windows in our society remain unrepaired and unfixed?

King opens state rooms at Windsor Castle to Muslims breaking Ramadan fast for first time

The King has opened state rooms at Windsor Castle to Muslims breaking Ramadan fast for the first time.
On Sunday, more than 360 guests from all backgrounds gathered in St George’s Hall for Iftar, the fast-breaking evening meal during the holy month of Ramadan.
It marks the first time in the royal residence’s thousand-year history that an open Iftar event was held in the hall famous for hosting special banquets during state visits.
The King, who has promoted and celebrated interfaith dialogue and religious diversity throughout his working life, is understood to have been “kept aware of” and “supportive” of the event by the Royal Collection Trust (RCT) and the Ramadan Tent Project (RTP).
The gathering is part of the RCT’s aim to make sure access to its palaces is “enjoyed by everyone”, said Simon Maples, Windsor Castle’s visitor director.
The Berkshire royal residence welcomed Iftar attendees for the first time in history last year, but in the Learning Centre rather than the state apartments.
The holy month of Ramadan, which began last Friday evening, sees Muslims fast and refrain from eating or drinking between dawn and sunset for the duration of March.
Mr Maples said the monarch has been “championing religious diversity and encouraging interfaith conversation” for many years.
Omar Salha, the founder and chief executive of the RTP, told the BBC: “The King is an excellent ambassador for this cause and is committed to community cohesion.
“We are incredibly grateful for his support towards the British Muslim community.”
Sunday’s event included a call to prayer signalling the time to break the fast and prayers were then said before the meal was served.
Open Iftar, organised by the award-winning charity RTP with the RCT, will host similar events across the country in the coming weeks, including at Shakespeare’s Globe and the V&A museum in South Kensington.
‘Surreal and poignant moment’
Mr Salha added: “Breaking our fast and marking the holy month of Ramadan at Windsor Castle, one of the most famous and iconic royal landmarks in the world, is an incredibly surreal and poignant moment to share with people of all faiths and none.
“It serves as a powerful reminder of how proud we are to represent a pillar of Britain’s rich cultural ecology celebrating community, belonging and inclusion.”
Iftars are open to everyone, regardless of faith and background and the RCT’s website encourages “people of all faiths and none” to join in breaking fast at Windsor Castle.
Guests who attended the event started with a self-guided tour of the state apartments before dining in the famed St George’s Hall.
One attendee told the BBC: “I’ve never been to Windsor Castle before, so this is an awesome experience. The first time to be here and to do it in a Islamic way – amazing.”
A former history student added: “To mix my Muslim identity with that historical knowledge [in Windsor Castle] is a real privilege.”

La subcampeona del mundo, que trabaja fabricando transformadores en su pueblo, Almagro, afirma que «estoy como en una nube». También está nominada a mejor ultrafondista del mundo por la IAU, cuya decisión se conocerá tres días después de cumplir 44 años
«Estoy como en una nube», afirma sonriendo la corredora de montaña Gemma Arenas Alcázar, de 43 años. El pasado viernes, el presidente del Comité Olímpico Español (COE), Alejandro Blanco, le comunicó por carta, adjunta en un correo electrónico, que se le había concedido la medalla de este organismo por «tus méritos deportivos». «Fue una gran sorpresa; ni me lo imaginaba ni me lo esperaba», reconoce la atleta con otra sonrisa, la que le acompaña en todas sus carreras.
Era tan fría la comunicación oficial del COE que Gemma no fue consciente de la magnitud del reconocimiento hasta que su marido, entrenador y maestro de escuela, Agustín Luján, llegó de clase a casa y le dijo en qué consistía el galardón: «Pero vamos a ver; esto es una medalla que te ha otorgado el Comité Olímpico Español por tu trayectoria». Y Gemma estalló de alegría.
Esta medalla tiene más mérito si cabe porque su disciplina deportiva no es olímpica. «¡Claro, claro, claro!», contesta antes de dar una explicación al reconocimiento del COE: «Quieren, en un futuro, que el trail sea olímpico. Yo no creo que esté para correr en unos Juegos; entre que se aprueba y son cada cuatro años, se me habrá pasado. Pero si se consigue, estará muy bien para la gente que viene por detrás». Y vuelve a sonreír la deportista de Ultra Trail que fabrica transformadores en una empresa de su pueblo, Almagro, donde trabaja a media jornada.
«Fue una carrera dura y muy agónica», dice la atleta de Almagro. La corredora de la sonrisa perpetua logró el segundo puesto en la modalidad ultra, después de superar un recorrido de 57 kilómetros y acumular un desnivel de 3.600 metros positivos
Tres veces subcampeona del mundo de Skyrunning, entre otros títulos, la deportista manchega comenzó a participar en competiciones de montaña en 2015 y asegura que, en estos ocho años, no ha tenido que renunciar a nada. «Sí me ha quitado muchas horas de estar con mis amigos, de salir a cenar, de quitarme horas de mis hijos...». Es madre de una niña de 9 años y un niño de 12. «Cuando yo empecé a correr en montaña, Nora no tenía ni un año», recuerda una deportista que ha tenido que viajar mucho, siempre apoyada por su marido, que también compite. «Es el único al que no he tenido que robar tiempo», se carcajea la campeona del mundo por selecciones en 2018.
La confusión de Gemma, el día que recibió la carta del COE, tenía una explicación. Dos días antes se había enterado por las redes sociales de su nominación a mejor ultrafondista del mundo, junto con dos españoles más y otros 15 atletas del planeta. «Estaba tan reciente esto que, cuando recibí el correo del COE, me resultó raro tantas cosas en dos días», rememora la laureada deportista.
El 15 de febrero, tres días después de que haya soplado 44 primaveras, conocerá si es elegida la mejor ultrafondista del mundo por la Asociación Internacional de Ultrarunners (IAU, por sus siglas en inglés). Sería un extraordinario regalo de cumpleaños, unido a la medalla del COE, que todavía no se sabe cuándo se entregará a la mejor embajadora de Almagro, con permiso de sus berenjenas, su corral de comedias y su bello casco histórico.

School bans mirrors as pupils spend too much time looking into them

A headmaster has banned mirrors from his school’s lavatories because pupils were spending too much time looking into them.
Mirrors have been removed from all bathrooms at William Farr Church of England Comprehensive School in Welton, Lincolnshire, because groups of pupils were gathering there and arriving late for lessons.
Grant Edgar, the headmaster, said some pupils were also made uncomfortable by the size of groups congregating in the toilets.
“Mirrors can encourage pupils to spend too much time in toilets, often in large groups,” Mr Edgar told BBC News.
The academy, he said, faced “some issues at transition times” between lessons and this could “affect punctuality”.
He added: “This can make it uncomfortable for some pupils to use the toilets.”
Mr Edgar said pupils who need a mirror “for a medical purpose” can still ask for one at reception.
But parents voiced concerns, describing the ban as “quite strange” and “a bit extreme”.
Would not ‘get rid of any issues’
Kelly, who did not give her surname, said she was concerned by how the decision would affect her daughter.
“My daughter has contact lenses and braces,” she said. “She does need a mirror if she needs to get her contact lenses out.”
Kelly said the decision would not “get rid of any issues”.
Another parent, also called Kelly, said the removal of the mirrors was “silly” and “a bit extreme”.
“They’re just mirrors, aren’t they? We have mirrors at home, why can’t we have them in school?” she asked.
Karen, who has a daughter at the school, was broadly supportive of the change.
“She can’t go in and check her hair and check her eyelashes haven’t fallen off,” she said.
“Now she can’t do that and she can get to class on time, it’s actually probably not a bad thing.”
Emma Kenny, a psychologist, said pupils should be “part of decisions” that affect their lives.
“You don’t know what’s going on in that kid’s life,” she said. “That hub in the bathroom where they are checking make-up and covering spots can be powerfully important to them.”
Ms Kenny said a bigger problem might be why children are spending so much time in school toilets in the first place.
Differing approaches
In 2023, Christopher Whitehead Language College in Worcester replaced mirrors in girls toilets with posters describing make-up as a “harmful drug” that makes women “feel ugly”.
One parent told the Daily Mail at the time: “Yes, girls need to be taught about inner beauty, but this approach is plain wrong.”
Neil Morris, the school’s headmaster, admitted it was a mistake, adding: “With hindsight, the posters should have been placed in their classroom area, not in one toilet.”
Other schools are trying novel measures to reduce distractions in the classroom.
Three schools in Surrey this week launched a pilot programme to restrict mobile phone usage with an app that blocks social media and messaging apps.
About 2,300 pupils are set to participate in the pilot, organised by the GLF Schools trust.
Glyn School in Ewell, Merstham Park in Redhill and Rosebery School in Epsom are to take part in the pilot. Meridian High School in Croydon will also be involved.
Julian Drinkall, the chief executive of the trust, said mobile phones led to “distracting notifications”, “dangerous content,” and “excessive screen time”.

Lumbalgia: descubre los síntomas y cómo aliviar el dolor de espalda

Dolor en la parte baja de la espalda

Dolor en la parte baja de la espalda
Avance en la lucha contra la lumbalgia
La lumbalgia, lumbago o dolor lumbosacro es el dolor localizado en la parte baja de la espalda; concretamente en la zona lumbar de la columna vertebral (columna lumbar) entre las últimas costillas y la zona glútea. Está producido por alteraciones en ligamentos, músculos, discos vertebrales y vértebras en esa zona y puede extenderse desde la zona lumbar a las piernas o miembros inferiores; en ese caso se llama ‘dolor lumbar irradiado’. Puede afectar a cualquiera pero suele aparecer a partir de los 30 o los 40 años.
Mecánicas y de origen inflamatorio
Las causas de la lumbalgia o lumbago son varias y se dividen en las de origen mecánico y la de origen inflamatorio como la producida por un tipo de artritis, la espondilitis anquilosante.
Las principales causas mecánicas son:
- Esguinces y distensiones.
- Degeneración de los discos intervertebrales.
- Hernia discal.
- Ciática.
- Espondilolistesis. Cuando una vértebra lumbar pelliza o pinza los nervios al desplazarse de su sitio.
- Fracturas o traumatismos.
- Estenosis espinal. Estrechamiento de la columna vertebral.
Otras causas pueden ser:
- Enfermedad celiaca.
- Enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal como la colitis ulcerosa o la enfermedad de Crohn.
- Endometriosis.
- Enfermedad inflamatoria pélvica crónica.
- Cálculos renales.
- Enfermedades vasculares.
- Osteoartritis.
- Artritis reumatoide.
Dolor lumbar
El principal síntoma de la lumbalgia es el dolor lumbar. Si es de origen mecánico suele ser peor cuando se pasa mucho tiempo de pie o por una mala postura. Suele desaparecer al tumbarse en la cama.
Si es una ciática o lumbociática el dolor es irradiado, se extiende desde la zona lumbar descendiendo por el muslo hasta el pie. Puede haber una sensación de hormigueo y falta de fuerza en la pierna afectada.
Si el origen es inflamatorio suele aparecer por la noche o de madrugada obligando al afectado a levantarse. Estar activo, en este caso, suele favorecer la atenuación o desaparición del dolor.
La lumbalgia puede ser aguda, si dura menos de seis semanas; subaguda, si dura entre seis semanas y tres meses; y crónica si dura más de tres meses.
Descripción de síntomas y examen físico
El diagnóstico tratará de determinar la causa (inflamatoria, mecánica, traumatismo, degenerativa, hereditario…) para ello se consultará al paciente, en una escala de 0 a 10. Se solicitará un análisis de sangre, una radiografía de columna y, posiblemente, una tomografía computerizada (TC) o una resonancia magnética (RM).
Analgésicos y relajantes musculares
Cada caso tiene un enfoque concreto pero se puede decir que se recomendará la aplicación de frío o calor en la zona en que se manifiesta el dolor. Se pueden prescribir analgésicos, antiinflamatorios y relajantes musculares. En casos en que el dolor no se alivie se puede plantear una inyección de cortisona para reducir la inflamación alrededor de las raíces nerviosas. Esto alivia el dolor temporalmente.
Para dormir se recomienda hacerlo en posición fetal y con una almohada o un cojín entre las piernas. También se pueden realizar masajes terapéuticos.
Buen estado físico
Mantenerse en forma y tener un buen estado físico haciendo ejercicio y favoreciendo la tonificación y flexibilidad muscular. Es clave mantener un peso saludable, saber mantener una buena postura corporal y no fumar.

July 31 (Reuters) - Moldova's president has appointed the former deputy head of the country's tax service to serve as finance minister, a presidential decree showed on Wednesday.
Victoria Belous, 40, replaces Petru Rotaru who led the finance ministry from September 2023 until he became vice president of Moldova's central bank. Parliament approved Rotaru's appointment to the central bank earlier on Wednesday.
"(Belous') experience and dedication will contribute to the ministry's efforts to ensure financial stability and economic growth," Prime Minister Dorin Recean said.
Belous had served as deputy head of the State Tax Service since August 2022.

La construcción de un puente junto al de Alcántara creó un largo debate entre los técnicos y los adalides del tipismo

La construcción de un puente junto al de Alcántara creó un largo debate entre los técnicos y los adalides del tipismo
Para unir la Carpetania con Augusta Emerita y Oretum los romanos alzaron en Toletum un necesario puente sobre el Tajo. Llamado luego de Alcántara, aquí prestó servicio en solitario hasta 1933 gracias a periódicas obras que intentaron curar unos males cada vez más graves. En 1914, la Jefatura de Obras Públicas de Toledo apuntaló el arco menor con una cimbra, una vez incautado el puente (5 de julio de 1911) a la Casa ducal de Alba, colectora de unos pontazgos reconocidos en 1746. La propiedad eludía los arreglos ante los exiguos ingresos cobrados a los arrieros, pues los vehículos a motor estaban libres de tal carga. A finales de 1915, El Eco Toledano denunciaba el «estado ruinoso» del puente, cuya solución, según el ingeniero de la Jefatura Provincial de Toledo, José María Arambarri, pasaba por repararlo y destinarlo solo a los peatones, además de levantarse uno nuevo para los modernos transportes.
Otra clave del puente de Alcántara asoma en una entrevista al diputado José Félix de Lequerica en El Castellano (abril de 1923). Recordaba que, en 1921, los presupuestos del Estado contemplaron 4.000 pesetas para estudiar la unión directa desde la puerta de Bisagra con la estación del tren mediante un puente sobre el Tajo. Dificultades legales lo impidieron, pero se aceptó variar el trazado de la salida hacia Ciudad Real, «dando las vueltas precisas» para que tal carretera no se alejase de la terminal ferroviaria. Y es que, desde 1911, a la vez que se veía preciso crear un nuevo puente junto al de Alcántara, seguía presente el anhelo de prolongar el ferrocarril desde Toledo hacia la línea de Extremadura.
El ferrocarril y la Fábrica de Armas
Implantado el Directorio Militar del general Primo de Rivera en 1923, las infraestructuras fueron objeto de flamantes programas cuya financiación flaquearía al carecerse de una política fiscal adecuada. Entre los planes públicos florecieron inéditos trazados ferroviarios. En julio de 1924, ante la noticia para unir las líneas de Extremadura y Ciudad Real con un enlace entre Cabañas y Algodor, un edil toledano, Florentino Serrano, elevaba una moción al pleno para que la Ciudad solicitase al Directorio anular tal proyecto y acercarlo a Toledo. Sugería prolongar las vías desde la estación, cruzar el Tajo, llevarlas a la Fábrica de Armas y luego continuar hacia Bargas. En el mes de agosto, en una asamblea celebrada en el Ayuntamiento con representantes de otras instituciones locales, se avaló la moción. El ingeniero Luis Barcala explicó allí que la idea de unir Toledo y Bargas ya estaba en estudio desde años atrás, añadió que procedía solicitar al Directorio un nuevo puente sobre el Tajo.
Recordemos que, tras el armisticio de la I Guerra Mundial (1918), la Fábrica de Armas redujo la producción cartuchera y la plantilla de trabajadores, algo que se acentuó, a partir de 1926, finalizada la campaña del Rif. Ciertas opiniones señalaban al ferrocarril como un recurso vital que, además de fomentar el turismo, podría favorecer a la factoría para expedir novedosos productos, como rodamientos o motores, más allá de la fabricación de espoletas, instrumental quirúrgico y cuchillas. En 1927, la falta de pedidos, de materias primas y créditos redujeron los 1.500 puestos de trabajo a 900. En el mismo año, otro problema gravitó sobre la ciudad al abrirse en Zaragoza la Academia General Militar, pues se temía el cierre de la Academia de Infantería. Solo la inversión estatal en varios proyectos pendientes podía aliviar el problema del paro.
Un discutido proyecto
A finales de 1924, cumpliendo el acuerdo de la asamblea del mes de julio, comenzaron los contactos con el Gobierno. En ese momento, El Castellano Gráfico insistía en el ruinoso estado del puente de Alcántara, un tesoro artístico dañado por el «tráfico incesante del vivir moderno». En 1925, la revista Toledo que dirigía Santiago Camarasa, apoyó el «ganado descanso» del puente medieval, construir otro nuevo y el deseado tren Toledo-Bargas. En agosto de aquel año, el Directorio aprobó un concurso de proyectos para erigir un viaducto de hormigón, aguas arriba del puente de Alcántara, a 75 metros, frente al paseo de la Rosa. Las bases las redactó el ya mencionado ingeniero, Luis Barcala, sin embargo, hasta 1926, no se publicó el citado concurso al que solo podían concurrir los ingenieros. Se pedía presentar una obra bella y armónica delante del venerado puente de Alcántara.
Aquello despertó una disputa profesional entre ingenieros y arquitectos. Vicente Machimbarrena, director de la Escuela de Caminos, avalaba desde la Revista de Obras Públicas la prevalencia ingenieril, conocedora de las estructuras y los materiales, frente a «caprichosos» diseños de los arquitectos que luego los ingenieros tenían que recalcular. Defendía el uso del hormigón, «de infinita docilidad», acaso con un sobrio ornato. En la revista Arquitectura (1925), el reputado arquitecto Leopoldo Torres Balbás mostró dudas sobre un puente al pie del histórico recinto de Toledo que, por otra parte, carecía de un plan de ensanche. Temía ver un «pastiche más». Esta polémica se recoge en un estudio del investigador Julio Martín Sánchez (2012).
Sin embargo, los concursantes eligieron alzados historicistas y eclécticos, caso de los cinco firmados, respectivamente, por Arturo Monfort, José María Arambarri, José López Rodríguez, Mariano García Cervino y José Ochoa. El de Alfonso Peña Boeuf y Tomás García-Diego fue el más actual y comedido. El jurado lo componían dos ingenieros (Félix Boix y Antonio Prieto), dos arquitectos (Modesto López Otero y Luis Bellido) y un crítico de arte, el toledano Ángel Vegue y Goldoni.
En marzo de 1927, el jurado declaró desierto el concurso. Pidió su anulación pues las bases publicadas omitían ciertos detalles, como el enlace directo del futuro puente con la puerta de Bisagra que exigiría «un muro de avenida» y afectaría a toda la ladera norte de Toledo. El jurado planteó trasladar el viaducto aguas abajo del de Alcántara, en una cota inferior, abriendo una carretera de 500 metros desde la subida al castillo de San Servando hasta el nuevo enclave para volver a la plaza de Alcántara. Se pedía que el futuro puente fuese de hormigón revestido de mampostería, «sin anacronismos ni arqueologías», ni «inútiles y estorbosas» torres. Se apuntó una ventaja más. Desde el nuevo puente podrían partir «dos caminos de circunvalación, uno por cada margen» del Tajo para conectar los históricos pasos de Alcántara y San Martín.
Aquel dictamen fue refutado por los adalides del Toledo eterno. Alguien opinó que bastaría con reparar el de Alcántara para que continuase en servicio activo. Sin embargo, en 1929, comenzarían las obras sugeridas con los primeros andamios al pie de los restos del acueducto romano. El debate se diluyó en pocos años.

A crew of US and Russian astronauts were treated after landing off the coast of Florida on Friday. The four were onboard the ISS for over seven months, with Hurricane Milton delaying their return.
Three NASA astronauts and one Russian cosmonaut returned to Earth from the International Space Station (ISS) Friday after seven months in orbit.
The four, Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt, and Jeanette Epps, and Russian cosmonaut Alexander Grebenkin had been scheduled to return two weeks ago but those plans had to be delayed due to weather disturbances caused by Hurricane Milton.
NASA said the crew had received medical exams upon exiting the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft that flew them home, but added that the four, "were taken to a local medical facility for additional evaluation" after splashing down in the Gulf of Mexico near Pensacola, Florida.
NASA said the step had been taken "out of an abundance of caution," and that "all crew members were flown to the facility together."
No mention was made of why exactly the extra exams were necessary.
The crew had spent the previous seven months conducting hundreds of scientific experiments aboard the ISS, including some conducted with stem cells and plants as well as others concerned with the health of astronauts in space.
Two other stuck-in-space astronauts, Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, whose own mission went from eight days to eight months, will remain on the ISS until February next year.

MANCHESTER, Jan 18 — Ruben Amorim has warned that Manchester United’s season will continue to be a “rollercoaster” ride as players learn to adapt to his system following a dramatic 3-1 win against Southampton.
Premier League basement club Southampton were on the brink of a shock win at Old Trafford on Thursday before Amad Diallo scored a stunning 12-minute hat-trick to turn the game on its head.
It followed a hard-fought 2-2 draw with Liverpool and a morale-boosting FA Cup win against Arsenal.
Amorim, who took over from the sacked Erik ten Hag in November, had previously warned that a “storm will come” ahead of a run of six defeats in eight games.
And the 39-year-old Portuguese boss forecast more turbulence following a sub-par display against the struggling Saints.
Despite the win United, who host Brighton on Sunday, are still languishing in 12th place in the Premier League table.
“I think it’s going to be hard until the end of the season,” Amorim said. “It’s going to be a little bit that rollercoaster. Then it depends on the time you have to train. We are still in the (FA) Cup and we have UEFA games for the Europa League.
“Then it’s important also to focus on next Thursday (when Scottish giants Rangers visit Old Trafford) to win and to try to be in that top eight.”
He added: “We had seven trainings together in 14, 15 games. It’s really hard, but we have to continue and try to win it. Sometimes playing good, sometimes playing bad.”
Amorim accepted his side did not play well against Southampton and indicated several players were tired, including Manuel Ugarte, whose own goal late in the first half gave the visitors the lead.
“You (the media) are focused on what I said about Ugarte,” he said.
“Ugarte was tired because he did a great job against Liverpool.
“If you look at the game against Arsenal, maybe Ugarte and Bruno (Fernandes) were the best players against Liverpool.
“They didn’t play against Newcastle. I think that happens with all players in the Premier League.” — AFP

UN accuses Israel of genocidal acts, sexual violence

Israel carried out "genocidal acts" against Palestinians by systematically destroying women's healthcare facilities during the conflict in Gaza, and used sexual violence as a war strategy, United Nations experts said in a report.
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected the report's findings on Thursday, saying they were biased and anti-Semitic.
"Instead of focusing on the crimes against humanity and war crimes committed by the Hamas terrorist organisation...the United Nations once again chooses to attack the state of Israel with false accusations," he said in a statement.
Israel disengaged from the Human Rights Council in February.
"Israeli authorities have destroyed in part the reproductive capacity of the Palestinians in Gaza as a group, including by imposing measures intended to prevent births, one of the categories of genocidal acts in the Rome Statute and the Genocide Convention," said the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel.
Those actions, in addition to a surge in maternity deaths due to restricted access to medical supplies, amounted to the crime against humanity of extermination, the commission said.
The report accused Israel's security forces of using forced public stripping and sexual assault as part of their standard operating procedures to punish Palestinians following the Hamas-led attacks on southern Israel in October 2023.
Israel has rejected the accusations.
"The IDF (Israeli Defence Force) has concrete directives ... and policies which unequivocally prohibit such misconduct", the permanent mission to the UN in Geneva responded in a statement, adding that its review processes are in line with international standards.
A previous report published by the Commission in June 2024 accused Hamas and other Palestinian armed groups of serious rights violations in the October 7, 2023 attack. In March last year a team of United Nations experts said there were "reasonable grounds to believe" sexual violence, including rape, occurred at several locations during the militant group's assault.
Israel is party to the Genocide Convention and was ordered in January 2024 by the International Court of Justice to take action to prevent acts of genocide during the war against Hamas.
It is not party to the Rome Statute, which gives the International Criminal Court jurisdiction to rule on individual criminal cases involving genocide and crimes against humanity.
South Africa has brought a genocide case against Israel's actions in Gaza at the International Court of Justice.
Hamas carried out a cross-border raid into southern Israel on October 7, 2023, triggering a devastating war in the Gaza Strip that has killed more than 48,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza health officials. Hamas militants killed 1200 people and took 251 hostages, according to Israeli tallies.

Iowa City, Pittsfield, Massachusetts, and Fayetteville, Arkansas, have been named among the best places in the US to retire without breaking the bank.
That is according to new research ranking the 25 best places to enjoy your retirement.
The Forbes research screened more than 800 places, searching specifically for the best spots for pursuing new or lifelong passions - regardless of cost.
It ranked places based on six interest areas: golf, arts and culture, fine dining, lifelong learning, outdoor activities on water and outdoor activities on land.
Since high housing or living costs were not a disqualifying factor, the ranking includes cities such as San Francisco and New York City, which are among the most expensive in the US.
But there are still plenty of cheaper places on the list, including four cities where both the average home price and cost of living is below the national average.
Iowa City, Iowa, has some of the cheapest home prices in the Forbes ranking.
The average property in the city costs $295,000, which is 30 percent below the national median.
The cost of living in Iowa City is also 10 percent below the national average.
The traditional college town, which is 115 miles east of the state capital Des Moines, ranked among the most enjoyable cities for retirees due to its lifelong learning opportunities.
It is also an anchor for arts and culture, has a low serious crime rate and a high number of doctors.
'Significantly, all retirement income (including Social Security benefits, pensions, annuities and withdrawals from retirement accounts) are excluded from taxable income,' Forbes said.
Pittsfield, Massachusetts, has the cheapest property prices on the list, making it a good choice for retirees on a fixed income.
The median home price in this scenic city is $282,000 - 33 percent below the US average.
The cost of living in Pittsfield, which is 135 miles west of Boston, is also 4 percent lower than the national norm.
The city also boasts a world-class summer arts scene, according to Forbes, and has state parks, skiing and wildlife on its doorstep in the Berkshire Mountains.
The study whittled down a list of more than 800 places by excluding anywhere with serious crime rates, bad air quality, a lack of primary care or high climate change risks which could affect the prospects of a happy and healthy retirement.
After eliminating a lot of places, it compared the 'fun stuff.'
Fayetteville, Arkansas, made the list due to what it can offer for nature-loving retirees.
It has numerous parks and waterways where residents can boat, hike and go fishing - as well as a huge 21 golf courses.
The University of Arkansas, which is located in the city, also offers one of the country's best lifelong learning deals for senior citizens, with free tuition and fee waivers.
Fayetteville is also among the most affordable places on the list - with a cost of living which is 10 percent below the national average and a median home price 15 percent below the US average, at $359,000.
There is also no state estate or inheritance tax in Arkansas, Forbes noted.
Walla Walla, Washington, is also among the cheaper places where Americans can enjoy their later life.
'With more than 100 nearby wineries, this laid-back town, 260 miles southeast of Seattle, boasts a strong fine dining scene,' said Forbes, plus a varied selection of hiking and biking trails.
Homes in the city are 2 percent cheaper than the typical US property - at $413,000 - and the cost of living is 7 percent lower than the national average.
Dallas, Texas, also boasts a median house price of $392,000 - 7 percent below the national median.
That is alongside its arts and culture scene, fine dining options and nearby golf courses, which landed it a spot on the list.
While Traverse City, Michigan, has a typical home price slightly higher than the national average, the cost of living in the Midwest city is 4 percent lower than in the rest of the country.
It is also close to the famous Interlochen Center for the Arts, which hosts scores of music performances.
'With frontage on an inlet of Lake Michigan, Traverse City has water sports, more than 30 area golf courses and a reputation as a top dining town,' Forbes added.
Oregon is the state which has the most cities on the list - with Ashland, Bend and Eugene all ranking among the most enjoyable places for retirees.
Sarasota, Florida, meanwhile, was the only city in the Sunshine State which made the list.
This was largely due to climate change risk in the state, Forbes said.

UK riots: Far-right rioters could be evicted and banned from football matches

Hundreds of far-right rioters are due to be charged over the coming weeks as prosecutors have sworn to “act swiftly” to bring justice to those involved in the disorder.
Violent scenes unfolded across the UK last week as rioters clashed with police, looted shops, and destroyed buildings.
Beginning in Southport on August 30 in response to the killings of three young girls, rioting spread to dozens and towns and cities over the weekend.
There were fears that the disorder would continue Wednesday, when it was widely reported that far-right organisers were targeting nearly 40 migrant centres across the country. Instead, anti-racist demonstrators turned out in their thousands, dwarfing the small number of far-right activists that did appear.
Sentencing has already begun for many of those involved in last week’s rioting. Three men were jailed on Wednesday for their actions during the Southport disorder, making them the first to be jailed in connection with the riots.
Derek Drummond, 58, received the longest sentence of three years after pleading guilty to violent disorder and assaulting an emergency worker.
Director of public prosecutions, Stephen Parkinson, said: “Justice is coming for those who have rained chaos on their local streets – to secure this, the CPS will act swiftly, working alongside our partners in the criminal justice system.
“They may face life-long consequences: conviction, and a permanent record of their involvement on the Police National Database. This can limit their employment options in the future and ability to travel to certain countries,” he added.
Some have been sentenced to shorter sentences, and others given suspended sentences with community service orders. For all, the consequences to their daily life are likely to be severe.
One possible repercussion for rioters could be the impact their actions have on their employment. Not only does a criminal record makes it harder to get a job, but being criminally charged whilst employed can lead to getting sacked.
This isn’t always the case, and employers can be held to account for unfair dismissals. But if there are conditions of employment that are breached due to criminal activity, an employer is likely to have grounds to dismiss an employee. This could be for reasons like work-related relationships being irreparably damaged, or the business’ reputation is brought into disrepute.
Living situations of rioters could be affected, too. In 2011, ministers backed councils who sent tenants eviction notices for being charged in relation to the riots of that year. The controversial move was not widespread, and was criticised by some campaigners who said it would only exacerbate community tensions.
Like all tenants, people who live in council housing have contracts outlining the conditions of their tenancy. In 2011, councils who choose to evict those connected to the rioting were able to justify the action by pointing to conditions that were breached as a consequence of their actions.
The government is also reported to be considering backing powers that would ban far-right rioters from football games. Many of those involved in the riots have links to organised football hooligan groups.
Ministers are understood to be working with football authorities to ensure those who were involved in violent activity last week are barred from watching the game live.
This could be made possible under existing powers in The Football Offences Act, reports The i, with football clubs working with local police forces to identify ticket holders who have been charged with violent offences.

New-look Pitt offense will try to keep up with the times as Pat...

PITTSBURGH (AP) - Kade Bell wasn't at the top of Pat Narduzzi's list when the longtime Pittsburgh coach went searching for a new offensive coordinator last winter.
Yet Narduzzi understood after a 3-9 slog in 2023 - easily the worst of his lengthy tenure at a school where few coaches stick around for long - that a big change was necessary.
So rather than do what he's done throughout his time with the Panthers and turn to an established coach (from Matt Canada to Mark Whipple to Frank Cignetti Jr.) to run the offense, Narduzzi hired the 31-year-old Bell away from Western Carolina and asked him to bring Pitt's attack into the 21st century.
"I needed a guy who was going to score points, have our offense have some enthusiasm," Narduzzi said. "I needed a guy with energy, a guy who could be really creative in what he was doing offensively. I wanted that for our players."
The Panthers certainly needed a spark after finishing last in the ACC in points and yards. A revolving door at quarterback didn't help.
Enter Bell, whose up-tempo approach at Western Carolina helped the Catamounts average 37.6 points per game in 2023. Narduzzi has no interest in getting Bell's way.
"I´ve never put handcuffs on an offensive coordinator, `You have to do this or that,´" Narduzzi said. "Let them go be them. That´s how I was coached. ... I don´t micromanage what they call, when they call it. That´s on them."
Nate Yarnell began last season buried on the depth chart. He ended it as the starting quarterback and appears to have the inside track over Alabama transfer Eli Holstein to start Aug. 31 when Pitt hosts Kent State.
Bell's system is based on the quarterback getting the ball out of his hands to playmakers quickly. Yarnell has completed 67% of his passes in his career and thrived in a similar setup while in high school. He's hoping for more of the same in 2024.
"My expectations for the season is to make sure I listen to Coach Bell and make sure I´m operating the offense as best I can," Yarnell said. "I´ve been blessed to be around Kenny Pickett my freshman year, see what a great Pitt quarterback looks like."
Perhaps the biggest indicator of just how much Pitt's offense struggled last season was the inability of the quarterback to get the ball to tight end Gavin Bartholomew.
The 6-foot-4, 260-pound Bartholomew finished with a career-low 18 receptions as a junior before an injury ended his season.
Yet rather than head elsewhere in the transfer portal, Bartholomew opted to return as a nod of respect to Narduzzi, who was the only Power Five coach to offer him a scholarship. Bartholomew also came back because he wanted to be part of the solution.
"We´re trying to be better than 3-9 because we know that´s not acceptable, that´s not Pitt football," he said.
No school in the country has racked up more sacks since 2018 than the Panthers (230). That number could take a hit this year after defensive end Dayon Hayes and the 10 1/2 sacks he recorded in 2023 transferred to Colorado and longtime defensive line coach Charlie Partridge left for a job in the NFL.
Their departures will put more onus on the secondary, which will play tight man-to-man coverage that's become Narduzzi's staple. Narduzzi has no plans to abandon it even with a pass rush short on experience.
"We´re going to press our corners, our safeties are going to be aggressive in the run and pass game," Narduzzi said. "We´re in your face. We´re not giving you free access."
Expect there to be growing pains. Pitt does play five of its first seven games at home, including a visit by longtime rival West Virginia on Sept. 14 and new ACC member Cal's first trip to Pittsburgh since 1966.
The Panthers also host Clemson on Nov. 16 before finishing up the year at Louisville (Nov. 23) and Boston College (Nov. 30), games that could be vital to Pitt's bid to return to a bowl game after missing out last season.

The Tories are heading for civil war over the ECHR

Critics of Brexit shrug with bewilderment that a kooky Tory hobby-horse somehow exploded into a national civil war.
A considerably different niche Tory obsession – namely erasing international human rights from English law – looks set to drag the country into a far darker existential crisis. Should the party open this particular Pandora’s Box, its final demise seems infinitely more likely.
When Kemi Badenoch signalled her shift towards backing the UK’s exit from the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) in a speech last week, some on the Tory Right felt pangs of relief; finally, their new leader was showing some willingness to materially harden her immigration stance in the face of the Reform surge.
But other MPs claim they are “ready to leave the party” over the issue. Those on resignation watch are not all centre-tacking wets, but include a smattering of high-profile Brexiteers. Some insist that leaving the ECHR would be “a very bad day for Britain and further relinquish our international role”. Many are flabbergasted at Mrs Badenoch’s speech, claiming there was “no need” for such grandstanding.
As one MP who is considering leaving the party told me: “She’s perfectly entitled to set the mood music that the ECHR doesn’t always work for us. But there are ways of doing that short of declaring that you’re leaving.”
The idea of certain Brexiteers resigning the whip on the point of principle that Britain should remain a member of a European court may seem mind-blowing. But that is precisely what could happen, should Mrs Badenoch double down.
It’s hard to see how an already diminished party could survive a rush of defections. The remaining rump would have little choice but to seek a pact with Reform. It would be the end of the Tory party as we know it.
The battle for Brexit and the crusade against the ECHR are fundamentally different beasts. Tory Euroscepticism was a rebellion against centralising, bureaucratic power.
The movement to leave the ECHR displays a quite different motive, namely that one should be willing to sacrifice freedom and dispense with liberalism altogether in order to keep order and resist excessive social change. Some conservatives might say that dispensing with human rights is simply the price that must be paid to stop the boats. For others, no political objective can be worth it.
Tory libertarians have misgivings about the claims of rights-sceptics. The idea that overweening foreign judges pose a threat to democracy has grown popular. Yet it is Parliament – and increasingly an executive blob of ministers, departments and state agencies – that is ultimately behind the proliferation of law that has seeped into every nook and cranny of our lives. Such executive power sometimes asserts itself with brute force – such as it did during lockdowns.
Rights-sceptics argue that European judges have expanded the definition of human rights beyond recognition, citing the invention of a right to family life. But the pandemic revealed the modern state’s willingness to invade this sacred realm, preventing people from mixing with – or even attending the funerals of – loved ones. It may not be so wise to forsake such a liberty.
The EU integration project is Continental in spirit, rooted in Gallic dreams of a Latin Empire that might match both the American and Russian power blocs. In contrast, the vision of a rights-based global order that underpins the ECHR was exported by Britain to Europe.
Winston Churchill was one of its leading advocates. The idea that people are born with natural basic rights that have a foundation independent of the laws of any particular society was invented by Englishman, John Locke.
A conception of freedom that tightly links it with the rule of law – rather than the arbitrary rule of men – is a peculiarly English idea and derives from centuries-long struggles against monarchical despotism.
The Tory party has drifted towards a zero-sum choice between border control and human rights. If the objective is to pursue the Rwanda policy, it’s hard to see how leaving the ECHR gets the Right closer to that goal.
The Supreme Court’s ruling that the Rwanda policy was unlawful, hinged on the principle of non-refoulement. This cornerstone of international law underpins the Refugee Convention.
Even if one believes that international human rights law has become an obstruction to the national interest, it does not follow that the UK’s only choice is to disengage from it.
The ECHR has been changed more than a dozen times before. The UK has a track record in leading its reform. If other countries are also affected by European judges meddling in immigration cases, then it stands to reason that other member states will rally behind the UK.
It is a myth that the ECHR requires unanimous support to change the way it works. A few years ago, when Russia was still a member and refused to ratify a treaty change, the court passed an “interim procedure” to bypass this blockage.
As Dr Stuart Wallace, an expert on the EU Convention at the University of Leeds told me: “There’s absolutely nothing stopping a government from calling a meeting next week to speak with European allies and find common ground. It’s feasible to arrange a conference and make changes to the convention. It’s been done before.”
Perhaps more importantly, legal eagles reckon that fudging reform of the much maligned Refugee Convention might involve fiddling with the definition of a refugee on the one hand, and a tightening of Article 31, which protects refugees who lack the proper paperwork, on the other.
As Dr Reuven Ziegler, an expert in refugee law pointed out to me: “There’s a strong argument for opening up formal routes for seeking asylum in the UK, with applications being initially scrutinised before refugees set foot in Britain. To some extent that is what happened when we allowed Ukrainians to apply online. If that approach was generally adopted, it could open the way for rethinking legal questions such as the particular framing of Article 31.”
That nobody in the Tory bubble is trying to hash out such a roadmap for reform is testament to the party’s brain dead state. Kemi Badenoch is keen to offer robust but credible and detailed solutions to the country’s challenges. It is hard to see how leaving the ECHR in a sulk serves this end.

Pete Hegseth has picked up another key vote for confirmation as President-elect Trump's secretary of defense.
Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., on Friday said he will vote to confirm Hegseth, an Army combat veteran whose nomination was under question because of his remarks questioning women's roles in the military, sexual misconduct allegations, as well as allegations that he drank alcohol while working previous jobs.
Hegseth appeared before the Senate Armed Services Committee this week relatively unscathed amid questions from lawmakers.
"The President’s pick for Secretary of Defense, Mr. Hegseth, has impressive academic qualifications, conducted himself very well in the Senate Armed Services hearing, and has a commendable record of service in uniform. He assured me he will surround himself with a strong support team," Cassidy said in a statement. "I will vote for his confirmation."
Hegseth has seen a wave of support from Republicans, including Sen. Joni Ernst, of Iowa, who previously expressed concerns about his nomination.
Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., said Hegseth passed his confirmation hearing with "flying colors."
"They tried to rattle him. They brought out all these anonymous allegations. He had an answer for every one of them," Tuberville said at the time.
During his proceedings, protesters were hauled out in zip ties after interrupting the hearing.
Democratic lawmakers also grilled Hegseth about his stance on women in combat roles, prompting him to push back that his argument related to women serving in the military focuses on military standards not eroding.

"I would point out I've never disparaged women serving in the military," he told Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y. "I respect every single female service member that has put on the uniform, past and present. My critiques, senator, recently and in the past, and from personal experience, have been instances where I've seen standards lowered."

El presidente de Estados Unidos y su nieta se han mostrado unidos en numerosas ocasiones y comparten los mismos gustos
No es ningún secreto que Donald Trump siente un amor especial hacia su nieta Kai Madison Trump. La hija del primogénito del Presidente de Estados Unidos se ha convertido en una de sus mayores defensoras, acudiendo a numerosos de sus mítines para mostrarle su apoyo.
“Los medios hacen que mi abuelo parezca una persona diferente, pero lo conozco tal como es. Es muy cariñoso. Realmente quiere lo mejor para este país”, relató ella misma hace unos meses. Y para darle las gracias por toda su ayuda, el político ha decidido hacerle un impresionante regalo valorado en casi 100.000 euros, tal y como ha desvelado ¡Hola!.
Elon Musk se pasó por la Casa Blanca el pasado 11 de marzo para regalar a Donald Trump nada más y nada menos que cinco de sus más lujosos coches Tesla. Los vehículos ocuparon el jardín de la casa presidencial, a modo de agradecimiento por todo lo que el político ha hecho por su mayor consejero.
Tras pasearse delante de la prensa, Trump aprovechó el momento para desvelar el regalo que le hizo a su nieta hace tan solo unos meses: un Tesla Cybertruck. “Lo compré para una joven muy especial. Seguro que nunca han oído hablar de ella, Kai”, expuso.
Un presente que no solo le ha servido a la joven para desplazarse, sino para poder guardar bajo llave uno de sus mayores tesoros: su hobby. “Es una gran golfista y guarda los palos en la parte trasera, así que supongo que es una apuesta muy segura”, añadió el presidente.
La propia Kai compartió imágenes junto a su nuevo coche en su cuenta de Instagram, donde reúne a 1,6 millones de seguidores, pese a que no dijo en ningún momento de dónde provenía. Ahora, ya se sabe que fue su abuelo quien lo adquirió.
Así es Kai Trump, la nieta favorita de Donald Trump
La joven, de tan solo 17 años, no solo puede presumir de ser toda una creadora de contenido en redes sociales, sino que es una apasionada del deporte. El golf forma parte de su vida desde que era pequeña. Una pasión que comparte con Donald Trump.
Tanto es así, que llegó a ganar el campeonato femenino del club de golf de Trump en West Palm Beach y jugó en las regionales de Miami durante las elecciones de Estados Unidos. “Cuando jugamos al golf juntos, si no estoy en su equipo, él intenta meterse en mi cabeza y siempre le sorprende que no le permita hacerlo. Pero tengo que recordarle que yo también soy un Trump”, sentenció ella.

[] |
EAGAN, Minn. (AP) - The Minnesota Vikings have finally assembled a proven group of cornerbacks, after a series of setbacks.
Stephon Gilmore was the latest and biggest catch.
The Vikings signed the 13-year veteran Gilmore on Monday, after agreeing to terms on a one-year, $10 million contract with $7 million guaranteed the day before. The five-time Pro Bowl pick and 2019 AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year was expected to be on the field for practice with his fifth team in the past five seasons, none of which has needed him more than Minnesota.
Gilmore, who began his career with Buffalo after being drafted 10th overall in 2012, has also played for New England, Carolina, Indianapolis and Dallas. His past two seasons were a resurgence of sorts, giving the NFC East champion Cowboys a vital dose of leadership and skill for their secondary to help stem the absence of injured cornerback Trevon Diggs. Gilmore had a career-high 68 tackles, two interceptions, 13 passes defensed and one forced fumble in a career-high 17 games.
After the tragic death of rookie Khyree Jackson last month, the Vikings lost promising second-year player Mekhi Blackmon for the season to a torn ACL on the first day of practice. Shaquill Griffin, their most significant spring addition, hurt his hamstring on the second day and has not practiced since, though he's on track to be ready for the regular-season opener.
In a clear sign of the club's lack of confidence in their existing depth chart, four new cornerbacks were brought in since players reported to camp before Gilmore became the fifth.
Now, assuming they can stay healthy and remain effective at their ages, the top three cornerbacks - Gilmore (13th year), Griffin (eighth) and Byron Murphy Jr. (sixth) - have a wealth of experience between them. Akayleb Evans, who started 15 games last season, remains firmly in the mix entering his third year. Fabian Moreau, one of the late-summer additions who has taken plenty of turns with the first-team defense, is going into his eighth year.
Murphy will be one of the two primary starters again after a solid debut with the Vikings in 2023, but his strength is in the slot so Griffin would likely pair with Gilmore on the outside in the three-cornerback nickel packages in expected passing situations.
That's a much better menu of options for defensive coordinator Brian Flores, who'd prefer to employ more man-to-man and press coverage to better complement his aggressive and unorthodox blitz packages after the injuries and inexperience at cornerback last season limited his calls and prompted a deterioration of the defense down the stretch. The Vikings have not ranked higher than 24th in the league in passing yards allowed since 2019.
Injury avoidance, naturally, could well be the barometer of success for this group. Gilmore had offseason shoulder surgery and dealt with a torn quadriceps that set him back in 2021. Griffin has barely been on the field in his first training camp with the team. Murphy had a knee injury and missed the last three games in 2023.
The Vikings also waived punter Seth Vernon, effectively awarding the job on Monday to incumbent Ryan Wright. He ranked 10th in the league last season with a gross average of 48.9 yards per punt, but his rate of kicks downed inside the 20-yard line dropped from 43.8 percent in his rookie year to 28.8.

Keir Starmer defends Joe Biden’s Nato leadership after Zelensky gaffe

Sir Keir Starmer has defended Joe Biden’s leadership of the Nato summit despite the US President confusing Volodymyr Zelensky and Vladimir Putin.
The prime minister, who earlier insisted President Biden was not senile and was on “good form”, faced questions about the president’s mental ability just moments after the US leader’s gaffe.
President Biden introduced Ukrainian president Mr Zelensky as “president Putin” at an event attended by Sir Keir at the Nato summit in Washington.
He immediately corrected himself, saying: “President Putin? He’s going to beat president Putin. President Zelensky.
“I’m so focused on beating Putin, we’ve got to worry about it.”
At a press conference at the conclusion of the Nato summit, Sir Keir repeatedly dodged questions about President Biden’s blunder.
Responding to questions about President Biden’s mental capacity, the prime minister told journalists “I would urge everyone to look at the substance of what’s been achieved over these two days” over support for Ukraine.
He said: “When we think of the global threats, that is the best possible outcome we could have had today and so I think he deserves credit for that, as does the team that worked with him.
“We close this council with renewed confidence and resolve to meet the challenge of Russian aggression. That is the outcome we all hoped we would get to and President Biden led us through that.”
Sir Keir sidestepped a question about whether President Biden was capable of serving four more years in the White House, instead again focusing on the outcomes of the Nato summit.
President Biden’s leadership credentials amid questions about his cognitive health, which have intensified since criticism of his performance in a TV debate against Donald Trump.
The President, 81, is seeking re-election in November despite discontent within the Democrat ranks about his suitability.
Sir Keir, who met the president for their first bilateral talks at the White House on Wednesday as Nato leaders gathered in Washington to discuss the challenges facing the bloc, said President Biden had been “across all the detail”.
Before President Biden’s latest slip-up, Sir Keir had told broadcaster their one-to-one discussions had happened “at pace” and Mr Biden seemed “on really good form”.
“We were billed for 45 minutes, we went on for the best part of an hour,” he said.
“He was absolutely across all the detail. We were going at pace through a number of issues.”
Asked whether the President was senile, Sir Keir told the BBC: “No… he’s shown incredible leadership.”
The President has stood firm against suggestions he should drop his candidacy and appealed for an end to the row over how the party moves forward in a sharply worded letter to Democrats.
Legislators and fundraisers including Hollywood actor George Clooney have since joined calls for President Biden to step aside, after he appeared flustered and stumbled over his words in the presidential debate with Mr Trump last month.

LONDON, Jan 18 — Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford saved two late penalties from the same player to earn the English Championship title chasers an improbable 0-0 draw with Sunderland yesterday.
CJ Egan-Riley triggered the first spot-kick in the 86th minute at Turf Moor, tripping Sunderland’s goalbound Wilson Isidor.
But Trafford kept his cool, diving to his right to deny Isidor’s spot kick.
Deep in injury time Sunderland were awarded a second penalty when Dennis Cirkin went down in the box after a challenge from Oliver Sonne.
Just as Sunderland fans were poised to celebrate Trafford produced an almost carbon copy save to keep out Isidor’s attempt into the corner again.
“Two penalties and the game could have looked very different if not for James Trafford and the saves he’s made,” Burnley coach Scott Parker told the BBC.
“Not many words can describe what he’s produced. I don’t think I’ve been involved in a game like that one at the end.”
The stalemate lifted Burnley level with leaders Leeds, with Sunderland remaining in fourth ahead of today’s action.
The result extended Burnley’s unbeaten record in the league to 14 games. — AFP

Watch: Mice perform ‘mouse-to-mouse resuscitation’

Mice have been filmed by scientists attempting “first aid” on each other.
Researchers from the University of Southern California drugged the rodents so they were immobilised and placed them near fully conscious mice to see how their peers would react.
The conscious mice were seen trying to clear the airways of the casualties by pulling their tongue out of the way and biting their mouth in an apparent attempt to revive them and help them to breathe.
They were also seen licking and grooming their fallen lab-mates with more intensity than usual.
Although previous research has found elephants, chimpanzees and dolphins can all spot when an individual is incapacitated and respond with grooming and nudging, it is the first time a similar caring response has been seen in mice.
Researchers said the mice had exhibited a stereotypical set of behaviours when encountering an unconscious social partner, which had been “reminiscent of human emergency responses”.
Writing in the journal Science, Huizhong Whit Tao, the lead author, said: “They displayed distinct and consistent behaviours toward the partner, escalating from sniffing and grooming to more forceful actions such as biting the partner’s mouth or tongue and pulling its tongue out.
“These behaviours emerged after prolonged immobility and unresponsiveness of the partner and ceased once the partner regained activity, suggesting that they were triggered by observing unresponsive states of others.
“The consequences – including clearance of foreign objects from the mouth, improved airway opening, and hastened recovery – suggest reviving-like efforts.”
Experts found that mice that had met before spent more time trying to revive their companions compared with strangers, which researchers said suggested social recognition.
The reviving behaviour came to light after prolonged immobility and unresponsiveness and ceased once the mouse had regained activity, suggesting that they had been triggered by observing unresponsive states of others.
It was also seen when mice interacted with a dead companion but rarely seen when the partner had been active or simply sleeping.
When researchers studied the brains of the mice to see what had been triggering the behaviour, they found that when the animals had encountered a fallen comrade, it had triggered neurons in the paraventricular nucleus, releasing oxytocin hormones responsible for social bonding.
When the oxytocin activation was blocked, the helping behaviours was impaired.
In emergency situations, humans often exhibit instinctual “first aid” behaviours towards others.
The researchers concluded: “Our findings thus suggest that animals exhibit reviving-like emergency responses and that assisting unresponsive group members may be an innate behaviour widely present among social animals.
“Such behaviour likely plays a role in enhancing group cohesion and survival.”
In a commentary alongside the article, William Sheeran and Zoe Donaldson, of the University of Colorado Boulder, said: “People who witness someone collapse and who subsequently perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) report that they intervene because they intuitively understand that the person would otherwise die.
“Humans are not alone in this instinct. Animals as diverse as elephants, chimpanzees and dolphins can recognise and intervene by touching, nudging, and even carrying an incapacitated individual.
“These findings add to the evidence that an impulse to help others in states of extreme distress is shared by many species and highlight neural mechanisms that drive instinctive rescue.”

FRANKFURT, Jan 18 — Eintracht Frankfurt overcame the imminent departure of in-form Omar Marmoush to beat Borussia Dortmund 2-0 at home yesterday, heaping more misery on the slumping visitors.
Frankfurt, who cut Manchester City target Marmoush from the matchday squad just hours before kickoff, were clinical and controlled.
Striker Hugo Ekitike put Frankfurt in front early and Dortmund had few clear chances despite dominating control of the ball.
In stoppage time, Oscar Hojlund took advantage of a Dortmund mistake in midfield, winning possession and running 40 metres to slide the ball past a helpless Gregor Kobel.
“We know what we had in Omar,” Frankfurt’s Mario Goetze told DAZN.
“An incredible player, a great character. It’s always a shame when a player leaves, but the team did well against Dortmund today.”
The result means Dortmund, who played in the Champions League final in June, have lost their past three and have just one victory in their last six games.
They could fall to as low as 11th depending on results this weekend and are 11 points behind Frankfurt, who are on course for their first top-four finish in three decades.
Dortmund midfielder Pascal Gross said: “It’s a results sport and at the end of the day, we couldn’t get a result. It’s extremely difficult.”
Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl backed coach Nuri Sahin after the game despite the lean run, saying “we will keep going. Nuri has our trust.
“We’re disappointed and unsatisfied with where we are,” and added “this is not a team who should be sitting where we are on the table.”
Marmoush to City ‘likely’
Just hours before kick-off, Frankfurt’s sporting director Markus Kroesche confirmed Marmoush had been left out of the squad due to a “very, very likely” move to City.
Despite their poor recent form, the visitors started strong, Serhou Guirassy heading a lofted Julian Ryerson cross against the post eight minutes in.
Expected to carry a heavier burden after Marmoush’s departure, Frankfurt’s French forward Ekitike put the hosts in front 18 minutes in.
Taking advantage of some sleepy Dortmund defence, Rasmus Kristensen ran into acres of space on the right. The Dane tore down the flank and laid a controlled cross into the path of Ekitike, who glanced the ball home.
As they have done for much of the season, Dortmund dominated possession but were unable to break through, with the hosts holding firm.
With just over 10 minutes remaining, Nnamdi Collins clattered into Jamie Gittens inside the box but the referee waved the contact away before showing Dortmund captain a yellow card for complaining.
“It was a clear penalty,” Gross told DAZN.
Dortmund threw men forward as Sahin made a series of attacking substitutions, only for Frankfurt’s Hojlund to steal the ball from Can and march up the field before sealing the result.
At full-time, a tearful Marmoush emerged from the stands and celebrated with his soon-to-be former teammates for the last time.
“He helped out the team and I think you could see in the pictures how we appreciate him. We’re happy for him — it’s a part of football,” added Goetze.

If people thought last week’s White House clash between Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky was extraordinary they should be braced for more drama to come. The next startling event could well be a summit meeting between the US president and Vladimir Putin, probably to be held somewhere in the Gulf.
In addition, the Americans are said to be considering the cancellation of all military and humanitarian aid to Ukraine agreed by the Biden administration and passed by Congress. Such a reckless action would widen the rift with Europe. It would also present Sir Keir Starmer, who wants to act as a “bridge” between the United States and Europe while committing British forces to Ukraine, with a massive diplomatic headache.
The Prime Minister is determined not to be seen siding with one against the other, insisting a middle way can be steered to everyone’s mutual advantage. “We will never choose between the two,” he told MPs.
But if his optimism is misplaced a point might come where British and American foreign policy diverges to such an extent that this cannot be sustained.
The signs were there before the appalling treatment handed out to the Ukrainian leader by Mr Trump and his vice president J D Vance on Friday. In a UN vote last Monday to mark the third anniversary of the invasion, America twice sided with Russia.
That was a complete reversal of Washington’s previous stance under Joe Biden. The US refused to condemn Moscow’s actions or support Ukraine’s territorial integrity. Only North Korea and Belarus voted with them while China abstained. Perhaps the reasoning behind this volte face is that it is the only way to get President Putin to agree to the peace deal that Mr Trump is desperate to obtain. But that is all up in the air, as is America’s commitment to Nato, whatever Sir Keir has been led to believe.
One possible way through is for President Zelensky to sign the minerals deal, swallow his pride and apologise to Mr Trump for the perceived slight to the US. On American TV, British ambassador Lord Mandelson said Mr Zelensky and Europe should give their “unequivocal backing to the initiative President Trump is taking” to foster peace. Sir Keir was invited in the Commons to say that Lord Mandelson was speaking out of turn but declined to do so, suggesting this is No 10’s view.

SEJONG (South Korea), March 24 — South Korea has confirmed four additional highly pathogenic avian influenza (AI) cases in less than a week, Yonhap News Agency reported, citing the agriculture ministry on Monday.
The four cases have been reported at poultry farms in three adjacent cities in the central region — Cheonan, Sejong and Cheongju — since Wednesday, according to the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs.
The latest case broke out Friday at a poultry farm in Sejong, which has some 89,000 chickens.
It marks the 41st case of highly pathogenic bird flu the country has confirmed since reporting its first outbreak for the season on October 29.
Authorities said they have been taking necessary measures to prevent further spread of the virus, asking livestock industry workers across the nation to sterilise their farms, facilities and cars by Wednesday.
The ministry said the latest AI cases are expected to have limited impact on the domestic supply of eggs, but will continue to monitor the situation.
Some 1.8 per cent of 77.6 million chickens at poultry farms nationwide have been culled since late October due to the bird flu, according to the ministry. — Bernama-Yonhap

Die Wogera ist bekannt dafür, dass die Mieten bei ihr unter dem Ratinger Durchschnitt liegen. Doch der Preis bei Neubauten hängt davon ab, wie hoch die Baukosten am Ende sind.
Die Nachfrage nach bezahlbaren Wohnungen in Ratingen ist groß, viel größer als das vorhandene Angebot. Das wissen auch die Teilnehmer der RP-Befragung und haben das Angebot an bezahlbaren Mietwohnungen in der Stadt mit der Schulnote 4,2 bewertet.
Dass diese Art von Wohnungen knapp sind, merkt aber auch die Wohnungsgenossenschaft Ratingen, die längst die Nachfrage ihrer eigenen Mitglieder nicht mehr befriedigen kann. 1000 Wohnungssuchende zählte Vorstand Volkmar Schnutenhaus Anfang des Jahres. Doch freie Wohnungen gibt es kaum und wenn eine frei wird, stehen die Bewerber Schlange. Den Zuschlag bekommen dann die, die am längsten Mitglied sind.
Im Frühjahr haben wir zur großen Heimatliebe-Umfrage aufgerufen, rund 15.000 Leserinnen und Leser haben sich in unserem Verbreitungsgebiet beteiligt. Der Lebensqualität in Ratingen und Heiligenhaus insgesamt geben die Befragten eine glatte 2 – damit schneidet unsere Region überdurchschnittlich gut ab (Durchschnittsnote 2,3).
In puncto Vorortversorgung mit Krankenhäusern schneidet Ratingen aktuell mit einer 4,9 erwartungsgemäß schlechter als der Durchschnitt ab, der liegt bei 2,9. Grundsätzlich läuft laut Umfrageergebnis aber vieles schon gut, es gibt noch Luft nach oben.
Aktuell baut die Wogera an zwei Stellen in der Stadt, an der Hans-Böckler-Straße gegenüber der Stadthalle und in Tiefenbroich. An der Hans-Böckler-Straße entstehen 38 barrierefreie Mietwohnungen mit Tiefgarage. Das Angebot dort reicht von der Appartementwohnung mit 38 Quadratmetern Wohnfläche bis hin zur familiengerechten Vier-Zimmer-Wohnung mit 111 Quadratmetern.
Eigentlich sollten die Mieter bereits im Mai dieses Jahres einziehen. Doch wie überall im Land fehlen die Handwerker. Immerhin ist inzwischen das Baugerüst abgebaut und der Innenausbau so gut wie fertig. „Zum 1. September können die Mieter einziehen“, sagt Schnutenhaus. Von da an gelten auch die Mietverträge. Der Hinweis, dass alle Wohnungen vermietet sind, erübrigt sich eigentlich. Und das liegt auch am Mietpreis. 10,70 Euro pro Quadratmeter bei Erstbezug kosten die Wohnungen. Üblich seien in Ratingen 14 bis 17 Euro, so Schnutenhaus.
Ob dieser Preis für das Objekt in Tiefenbroich Am Feldkothen, Ecke Alter Kirchweg zu halten ist, ist fraglich. Schon der Baubeginn im September 2022 startete unter erschwerten Bedingungen. Denn zu diesem Zeitpunkt war es auch für die Wogera schwierig, Baumaterial zu bekommen, Preise für Material und Personal schnellten in die Höhe. Material gibt es inzwischen wieder, aber auch dort fehlen die Handwerker.
Da die Wogera derzeit noch nicht abschätzen kann, wie hoch die Baukosten am Ende sein werden, wird sie erst im Herbst in die Vermietung gehen. Denn erst dann lässt die abschätzen, wie viel die künftigen Mieter pro Monat zahlen müssen. Vormerkungen jedoch gibt es bereits. Und Schnutenhaus ist sich sicher, dass die Wohnungen am Ende alle vermietet werden.
Denn in Tiefenbroich wird es künftig auch einige Vier- und Fünf-Zimmer-Wohnungen für Eltern mit mehreren Kindern geben. Und auch die Zweiraum-Wohnungen sind mit 55 bis 58 Quadratmetern recht groß. Die beiden zweigeschossigen Wohneinheiten sind komplett barrierefrei und auch für Rollator-Nutzer geeignet, denn auch Aufzüge sind vorgesehen.
Einzug halten wird auch eine neue Kita mit vier Gruppen, die von der Stadt angemietet wird. Die Trägerschaft der Einrichtung wird der evangelische Kita-Verbund Windrose übernehmen, der in Ratingen bereits mehrere Kitas betreibt. Neben den Gruppenräumen gehören eine große Terrasse und eine Freifläche zum Spielen zur neuen Kita.
Eine weitere Bauoption hat die Wogera in Ratingen noch in der Hinterhand. „Uns gehört noch ein Grundstück an der Plättchesheide“, sagt Volkmar Schnutenhaus. Dafür ist aber der Bebauungsplan noch nicht durch. Wann gebaut werden könnte, steht deshalb noch längst nicht fest.
Weitere Projekte sind erst einmal nicht in Sicht. Denn für die Wogera steht an erster Stelle, dass ihre Mitglieder moderate Mietpreise zahlen. Ein Quadratmeterpreis von 20 Euro ist für die Genossenschaft deshalb keine Option.

Kvaratskhelia signs for Paris Saint-Germain from Napoli

PARIS, Jan 18 — Georgia winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia yesterday completed a move to Paris Saint-Germain from Italian league leaders Napoli, the French champions announced.
“Paris Saint-Germain is pleased to announce the signing of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. The 23-year-old winger, who will wear number seven, becomes the first Georgian player in the club’s history,” said a PSG statement.
No transfer fee was revealed but media reports in France said the Parisians would pay 70 million euros ($72m), not including potential bonuses, for the player.
The move comes 24 hours after the 23-year-old posted a video on social media telling Napoli fans “it’s hard for me but it’s time to say goodbye”.
“It’s an honour to be able to wear the PSG shirt,” he added in an interview with the PSG website yesterday.
“It was a dream for me to play for one of the biggest teams in the world. I’m very proud, it’s a dream and we’re going to fight together to fulfil our dreams. I’m very happy.”
The 2023 Scudetto winner, who arrived at Napoli in 2022 as a bargain buy from Dinamo Batumi in his homeland, was voted Serie A’s best player that season.
Kvaratskhelia scored 30 goals and provided 29 assists in 107 matches in all competitions for Napoli.
He has signed a contract until 2029 with the Ligue 1 leaders and will hope to dislodge France international Bradley Barcola from his position on the left wing in coach Luis Enrique’s starting line-up.
Kvaratskhelia could make an immediate debut for his new club when they go to Lens today, looking to extend their lead at the top of Ligue 1 to 10 points from nearest challengers Marseille.
However, he will not be able to play in PSG’s remaining Champions League matches this month, at home to Manchester City next Wednesday and away to VfB Stuttgart on January 29.
PSG will only be able to add their new signing to their Champions League squad should they make it through to the knockout phase beginning in February.
They currently sit one place and one point outside the qualifying spots for the play-off round before hosting City in a crunch match at the Parc des Princes.
“The project is what convinced me to come here,” added Kvaratskhelia.
“I know what the club wants to achieve and how it works with players. It’s in line with who I am, a lot of great players have played here, so I didn’t think much about it when I had the opportunity to come to Paris.”
Kvaratskhelia’s arrival adds a sprinkling of stardust to a PSG side still adapting following the departure of Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid at the end of last season.
His signing comes as PSG try to offload France centre-forward Randal Kolo Muani, who has been on the verge of making a loan move to Juventus having fallen out of favour in Paris.
However, reports in France yesterday suggested that switch is on hold because PSG have already filled their quota for players out on loan, which is capped at six. — AFP

Nancy Pelosi on how to win: 'What works in San Francisco might not work in Michigan'

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who remains a thundering force in the Democratic Party nearly two years after giving up her official leadership role, is best known for her behind-the scenes advice and occasional arm-twisting.
But she had some public advice for her party and Monday morning as Democrats kicked off their national convention in Chicago, with a Bay Area native, Vice President Kamala Harris, at the top of the ticket.
“What works in Michigan works in San Francisco,” said Pelosi, who has represented San Francisco in Congress since 1987, but “what works in San Francisco might not work in Michigan. Let’s win, baby.”
Pelosi made the comments to reporters after speaking at the California delegation’s breakfast meeting in a hotel ballroom, over muffins, melon and eggs. The point, she said, is finding consensus with a liberal framework, a key tool Pelosi has used to turn her party’s agenda into a series of legislative achievements, including the Affordable Care Act, better known as Obamacare.
It’s especially relevant now as Republicans try to define Harris as a San Francisco leftist. Since becoming her party’s standard-bearer last month, Harris has disavowed prior support for Medicare for all, a ban on fracking and other liberal positions she held when she ran in the Democratic presidential primary four years ago. She’s also deployed tougher rhetoric on the Southwest border as she fends off attacks from former President Trump over record migrant numbers that have occurred during the Biden administration.
But she has embraced other progressive goals including a new economic agenda that emphasizes an increased child tax credit, financial support for first-time home buyers and anti-price-gouging measures, though she has not fleshed out what those ideas would cost or how they would be executed.
Pelosi knows a thing or two about navigating criticism from the right while promoting a partisan agenda. She has been the face of San Francisco liberalism for decades, appearing in Republican campaign ads from Cleveland to Tampa, internet memes and fundraising appeals.
“The fact is, our state ... is very diverse,” Pelosi said, pushing back against California’s reputation as a blue haven. “It is not monolithic. You know, on the coast, it’s one thing. If you’re inland, it’s another. So we’ve learned to respect differences of opinion.”
Harris “knows governance has to be from the center in our country, and when she’s putting forth her priorities, they have to be in a way that is unified,” Pelosi said. “That’s what the campaign has to be. We cannot be like them, just saying, ‘We’re this and they’re that.’ No, it’s bringing people together.”

Eva Zapico, 25, appears in court accused of 'finfluencer plot'

Love Island's Eva Zapico appeared in court today charged with promoting a 'high-risk' foreign exchange scheme on Instagram.
Zapico, 25, along with fellow Love Islander Biggs Chris, 32, 2016 Celebrity Big Brother winner Scott Timlin, 36, and original TOWIE cast member Lauren Goodger, 37, were allegedly paid to promote the scheme to 4.5 million Instagram followers.
Also charged by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) are former Love Islanders Rebecca Gormley, 26, Jamie Clayton, 32, Zapico and TOWIE member Yazmin Oukhellou, 30.
The social media influencers and reality TV 'entrepreneurs' allegedly promoted @holly-fxtrends to millions of Instagram followers.
Zapico appeared at Southwark Crown Court with manicured nails, a white shirt and a long black coat.
She is yet to enter a plea to one count of issuing unauthorised communications of financial promotions on or about April 2, 2020.
Judge Sally-Ann Hales told the star: 'We may need you back here on October 24, bail remains unconditional same as before.'
Timlin, Clayton and Nwanze, Goodger, Chris, Gormley, Oukhellou and 33-year-old Holly Thompson - also known as Holly Zucchero - all denied issuing unauthorised communications of financial promotions at a previous hearing.
They are said to have promoted a foreign exchange scheme, linked to high-risk derivatives, run by Emmanuel Nwanze, 30.
He allegedly paid seven of the influencers to promote an Instagram account that provided advice on buying and selling contracts for difference (CFDs) to their combined 4.5mn followers between 2018 and 2021.
Nwanze denies one count of breaching the general prohibition of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 and one of unauthorised communications of financial promotions.
Judge Hales had earlier said the influencers would stand trial either on 1 February 2027 or 15 March 2027.
Goodger, Chris, Gormley, Clayton, Zapico, Thompson, Timlin and Oukhellou are all released on unconditional bail.
The case brought by the FCA relates to the 'promotion of the unauthorised provision of such advice through an Instagram account, using the handle '@holly-fxtrends' ('the Holly account') and the promotion of that account by a number of social media 'influencers'.
The Holly account was registered, between 1 March to 26 May 2020, in the name of 'Holly Zucchero' with an e-mail address of [email protected].
According to the prosecution, Holly Zucchero is and was, a persona adopted by the second defendant, Holly Thompson'.
It was allegedly used to promote a foreign exchange trading service and 'combined images of Ms Thompson, often in glamorous locations or surrounded by high value goods, with FX trading related posts.

Parliament speaks with one voice ... in a coalition against Rt Hon member for Clacton

I think we can all agree that this was “Parliament at its best”. No questions, no scrutiny, just a collective dash to war and some mindless patriotism.
Keir Starmer told a packed House that the nation “stands” with Ukraine and will be sending them bombs made in Belfast (now that’s a stamp of quality!). Kemi thanked him for “our conversation earlier today” – which explains his black eye – and said she stands with him, too. Indeed, the session quickly became standing room only as MPs rose to praise the PM and his proposed “coalition of the willing”.
There aren’t many countries in that coalition yet – just Britain and France (as long as the war doesn’t intrude on weekends) – but its ranks could easily be filled with middle-aged MPs, pundits, twitterers and collectors of Antony Beevor books, who all seem convinced they could have Vladimir Putin in a fight.
Ed Davey went even further: he’d like to defend Ukraine without America and its horrible president. Everyone who watched the Zelensky/Trump press conference had been “shocked and appalled”, he said, “except, it seems, the member for Clacton” – a dig at Nigel Farage that failed to register on the face of its globe-trotting target. Nigel routinely forgets that “member for Clacton” refers to him.
When Tovarich Farageski finally stood up, to a ripple of boos, he had the audacity to ask actual substantive questions of the policy: is the Trump mineral deal not a backstop and under what conditions would British troops serve in Ukraine? The PM suggested he was “fawning over Putin”, which deftly answered every point. Starmer was politer with lefty Richard Burgon, who asked if there would be a House vote before military action? Yes, said Keir. James Cleverly furiously shook his head, presumably of the view that it isn’t necessary.
A tear gathered in the corner of my eye. Here we are debating a war for democracy and there will be some MPs – our ruddy, bloody brave MPs – willing to make the ultimate sacrifice of their own voting rights. A few Labour members brought up the foreign aid cuts; Tory Andrew Murrison asked about the risks of sending British soldiers in without US security guarantees (the implication: if it all goes wrong, we’ll need the Yanks to back us up). But I felt reassured by the overall uniformity of thinking, the kind of consensus that got us through the dark days of Iraq and lockdown, buttressed by the foreign policy experience of several package holidays on the Continent and a skim read of The Economist on the plane over.
This Parliament knows who the real enemy is. It’s Reform.
George Freeman (Con) suggested the PM “point out to the member for Clacton” – again, no idea who you’re talking about – that “our enemy’s watching this chamber and that speaking with one voice is very important”.
Well, I’m pleased to discover that someone still watches the Commons; I’m surprised to find it’s Putin. And no doubt he threw his borscht at the TV and cried: “Damn those British swine for speaking with one voice! Dmitry, call the general staff! Our invasion of Clacton is cancelled!”

PARIS, Jan 18 — Lille warmed up for next week’s trip to Liverpool in the Champions League by coming from behind to beat Nice 2-1 yesterday and climb up to third place in Ligue 1 as they capitalised on Monaco’s surprise defeat earlier.
Hakon Haraldsson and Bafode Diakite scored the goals in the second half for Lille, who followed up a win on penalties at Marseille in the French Cup on Tuesday and extended their club-record unbeaten run in all competitions to 21 games.
Lille are now four points behind second-placed Marseille, who host Strasbourg tomorrow, while also sitting a point above Monaco after the principality team blew a lead to lose 2-1 at Montpellier.
Nice had gone ahead in northern France when Sofiane Diop pounced to convert a loose ball just before the half-hour mark.
A win would have seen Nice go third instead, and Tanguy Ndombele hit the woodwork for the visitors just before the interval.
Having survived that, Lille drew level only three minutes into the second half when Jonathan David provided the chance for Icelandic international Haraldsson to score.
Defender Diakite then found the net at a corner to put Lille ahead just past the hour mark, and Bruno Genesio’s side held on for the victory.
They currently lie eighth in the Champions League standings and are hoping to clinch a spot in the knockout phase when they visit Anfield, having already beaten Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in Europe this season.
Montpellier boost survival bid
Monaco’s slump continued ahead of their return to Champions League action as Jordan’s Mousa Al-Tamari notched a second-half brace to give Montpellier victory at the Stade de la Mosson.
It was just Montpellier’s third win this season and it breathes life into a survival bid which looked hopeless before this match.
Captain Thilo Kehrer had headed Monaco in front just after the half-hour mark, but the downward trend in their results is worrying as they prepare to host Aston Villa next Tuesday.
They have failed to win any of their last four Ligue 1 matches and were eliminated from the French Cup on penalties by Reims on Tuesday. Adi Huetter’s side have won just twice in 11 outings in all competitions.
They are currently 16th in the Champions League standings but have lost their last two games in Europe and another loss against Villa at the Stade Louis II would leave them at risk of failing to make the knockout phase.
They had threatened to run away with the game early on and deservedly went in front when Kehrer nodded in a corner at the near post.
Yet bizarrely the game changed completely after a hold-up of several minutes at the start of the second half caused by Montpellier fans playing loud dance music out of speakers behind the goal at one end of the stadium.
Tamari was gifted an equaliser on 55 minutes when he pounced on Kassoum Ouattara’s short back-pass to round the goalkeeper and score his first goal this season.
He then got the winner for Montpellier eight minutes from time, beating Radoslaw Majecki low at the goalkeeper’s near post after being set up by Arnaud Nordin.
Montpellier move level on points with Le Havre at the bottom, and are now within four points of safety before the weekend’s other games. — AFP

Der Düsseldorfer Verein Unart veranstaltet am Wochenende die 25. Unterbacher Kunstmeile. An zehn Stationen im gesamten Stadtteil werden Werke von 28 Künstlern präsentiert.
Der Verein Unart, eine Kulturinitiative aus Unterbach, veranstaltet am Wochenende, 28. und 29. September, die 25. Unterbacher Kunstmeile. Das erste Mal fand diese 1999 unter Mitwirkung von Wolfgang Prinz statt. Inzwischen bereichern viele neue Gesichter die Düsseldorfer Künstlergruppe und präsentieren in einem Rundgang ihre aktuellen Werke.
Künstler öffnen dafür ihre Ateliers und Unterbacher Geschäftsleute sowie öffentliche Einrichtungen stellen Räumlichkeiten für Ausstellungen zur Verfügung, so dass es gelingt, eine Kunstmeile von einem zum anderen Ende Unterbachs zu realisieren.
An zehn Stationen, angefangen an der Wasserburg Haus Unterbach bis hin zur Galerie Eichenwand, bereichern und beleben Malerei, Zeichnung, Collage, Fotografie, Skulptur sowie Schmuckdesign für ein Wochenende das Stadtbild. Insgesamt werden die Werke von 28 Künstlern und Künstlerinnen präsentiert. Die zehn Stationen der Kunstmeile sind durch Aufsteller und Plakate gekennzeichnet.
Zur Eröffnung am Samstag, 28.September, um 14 Uhr lädt die Kulturinitiative alle Gäste in die Räume der AWO, Gerrersheimer Landstraße 101 ein, bei einem Glas Sekt und musikalischer Begleitung mit Gitarrenmusik von Nico Mangiapane den Start zu feiern. Der Jugendtreff der AWO bietet Kuchen und Kaffee an.
In der Galerie Eichenwand werden alte Videoaufnahmen von den Anfängen der Kulturinitiative Unterbach gezeigt. Flyer, auf denen die zehn Ausstellungsorte vermerkt sind, liegen im Stadtteil aus. Eine Übersicht der Teilnehmenden bekommt man zudem online über www.kulturinitiative-unterbach.de. Die Öffnungszeiten sind samstags von 15 bis 18 Uhr und sonntags von 11 bis 18 Uhr.
Unart plant und veranstaltet über das Jahr verschiedene, mittlerweile fest in Unterbach etablierte kulturelle und künstlerische Events. „Die große Resonanz, auch über die Unterbacher Grenzen hinaus, und der Erfolg der bisher durchgeführten Kulturaktionen zeigen, wie wichtig eine lebendige und niveauvolle Kulturlandschaft in unserem Stadtteil ist“, teilen die Veranstalter mit.

Los académicos españoles tendrán que elegir ahora entre la cinta de Carla Simón, de Rodrigo Sorogoyen o de Alauda Ruiz de Azúa para enviar a Hollywood a la categoría de mejor película internacional

Los académicos españoles tendrán que elegir ahora entre la cinta de Carla Simón, de Rodrigo Sorogoyen o de Alauda Ruiz de Azúa para enviar a Hollywood a la categoría de mejor película internacional
No ha habido sorpresas entre las cintas preseleccionadas por la Academia de Cine para representar a España en los Oscar 2023. De entre 'Alcarrás, 'As bestas' y 'Cinco Lobitos' saldrá el título que finalmente envíe el cine español a Hollywood. Un nombre que se sabrá el próximo 13 de septiembre.
Hasta esa fecha, los académicos españoles tendrán tiempo para votar por su favorita, cada una con sus fortalezas y cualidades; pero todas ellas con un elemento común: un cineasta detrás que sabe lo que es triunfar con su película.
La favorita es la cinta de Carla Simón, ' Alcarrás ', que viene de ganar el Oso de Oro en el Festival de Berlín y de triunfar en las taquillas españolas con más de dos millones de euros recaudados. Con 'Alcarrás', un emocionante drama rural rodado en catalán sobre una familia de 'payeses' que busca sobrevivir en un mundo donde importa más el dinero que la tradición, la directora Carla Simón repetiría representando a España ante la Academia de Hollywood. En 2 017 ya fue con 'Verano, 1993' , aunque en aquella ocasión no llegó a estar en la terna finalista y no pudo acudir al Dolby Theatre.
Enfrente tendrá 'As Bestas' , la cinta de Rodrigo Sorogoyen ('El reino', 'Antidisturbios') que todavía no se ha estrenado pero que se pudo ver en el festival de Cannes , de donde salió con grandes críticas. El madrileño es una apuesta segura, ya que con cada título supera su anterior trabajo. Desde su debut con 'Stockholm', allá por 2013, no ha dejado de crecer, y tras impactar con 'Que Dios nos perdone' llegó a la cima con 'El reino', donde se hizo con el Goya a mejor director. Después estrenaría 'Madre', basada en el cortometraje homónimo que le llevó a los Oscar en 2018, y ahora con 'As bestas' mira al abismo de la condición humana a partir de un incidente de una pareja de franceses en una pequeña aldea de la galicia profunda. «Es una película que te desaloja del cuerpo cualquier brizna de aire, con unos personajes tan bien escritos e interpretados, tan llenos de razones y miserias que la película hierve de principio a fin », dijo el crítico de ABC Oti Rodríguez Marchante tras verla en Cannes.
La tercera en disputa es 'Cinco lobitos' , la última sorpresa de la temporada y dirigida por uno de los nombres que están llamados a triunfar en el futuro del cine español, Alauda Ruiz de Azúa , una debutante en el largo de gran trayectoria en el mundo del corto que ha sabido tocar la fibra sensible del público con un drama sobre la maternidad que triunfó en el último festival de Málaga.
Un acto sencillo
La actriz María Pedraza ha sido la encargada de dar a conocer, desde la sede de la Academia, los tres títulos que optan a representar a nuestro país en la próxima edición de los Oscar, la número 95, en la categoría de mejor película internacional. Junto a ella estaba el recién elegido presidente de la institución, Fernando Méndez-Leite , y la notaria Eva Fernández Medina.
El próximo 13 de septiembre se anunciará el título que finalmente representará a nuestro país en los premios de la Academia de Hollywood.
En la pasada edición España envió a los Oscar a ' El buén patrón ', de Fernando León de Aranoa, que se impuso a ' Madres Paralelas ', de Pedro Almodóvar, y a ' Mediterráneo '. La cinta protagoniazada por Javier Bardem pasó el primer corte de Hollywood pero no llegó a estar entre las finalistas para pelear por la mejor película internacional.

Miguel Ángel Serrano abandonó ayer la cárcel de Sevilla en la que permanecía desde el 2 de enero del 2023

Miguel Ángel Serrano abandonó ayer la cárcel de Sevilla en la que permanecía desde el 2 de enero del 2023
El ex director general de la Agencia IDEA Miguel Ángel Serrano salió ayer martes de la cárcel de Sevilla, horas después de que el Tribunal Constitucional anulara la condena por malversación por la que cumplía prisión por el caso de los ERE de Andalucía: “Por fin se hace justicia después de tanto tiempo”, dijo a su salida.
“Emocionado y abrumado” se mostró Serrano, quien lamentó en unas breves declaraciones a los periodistas haber tenido que pasar un año y medio de su vida en prisión “de manera absolutamente injusta, como ha determinado de manera muy contundente el Tribunal Constitucional”. También se mostró “muy agradecido” por su “enorme trabajo” con su abogado, Juan Carlos Alférez, quien lo acompañó a la salida, y al Constitucional “por la decisión tomada”.
Serrano abandonó sobre las 20:50 horas el centro penitenciario sevillano en el que permanecía desde el pasado 2 de enero del 2023 para cumplir una condena de seis años y seis meses de prisión y 17 años de inhabilitación absoluta por prevaricación y malversación.
La salida de la cárcel del que fuera director general de la agencia encargada de pagar las ayudas de los ERE se produjo horas después de que la Audiencia de Sevilla ordenara su puesta en libertad, una vez anticipado por correo electrónico el fallo de la sentencia dictada en su recurso de amparo ante el Constitucional.
Serrano es uno de los cinco condenados que seguían cumpliendo pena de prisión por el caso de los ERE y el primer encarcelado que sale en libertad tras la decisión de este martes de la corte de garantías.
Entre esos todavía reos no se encuentra el expresidente andaluz José Anotnio Griñán, quien mantiene en suspenso la ejecución de su condena durante cinco años debido al cáncer que padece.
La exconsejera de Economía y Hacienda Carmen Martínez Aguayo obtuvo por su parte a principios del mes pasado el tercer grado, un beneficio penitenciario por el que quedó adscrita al centro de inserción social (CIS) y que ya había recibido hace prácticamente un año -en su caso por motivos de salud- el exconsejero de Empleo y Desarrollo Tecnológico José Antonio Viera.
En declaraciones previas a EFE, el abogado de Serrano consideró que “sin duda alguna” el pronunciamiento de este martes del Constitucional va a suponer “un gran efectivo revulsivo” para el caso de los ERE y del resto de condenados que tienen pendiente la resolución de sus recursos.
Seis recursos por resolver
Fuentes jurídicas ha informado a EFE, a raíz del pronunciamiento de la corte de garantías que elimina la condena por prevaricación y malversación, que aunque quedan por resolver otros seis recursos más con distintos matices, atendiendo al caso concreto, la sentencia de los ERE apunta a quedar prácticamente en nada.
No obstante, la división en piezas separadas de esta macrocausa mantiene vivo el caso de la ERE en los tribunales y, de acuerdo al último balance facilitado a EFE por el Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Andalucía (TSJA), hasta principios del mes pasado contaba todavía con 134 piezas por resolver en los juzgados y 17 sentencias con condenas.
El recurso de Serrano ha sido el primero de los cinco que el pleno del TC prevé resolver esta semana, cuyos borradores abogan por la estimación total o parcial de los recursos de la exconsejera de Hacienda Carmen Martínez Aguayo, el exconsejero de Empleo Antonio Fernández, el de Innovación Francisco Vallejo y el ex alto cargo Jesús María Rodríguez, condenados por prevaricación y malversación.

El general Keith Kellogg, enviado especial para Ucrania del Gobierno estadounidense, ya se encontraba en Kyiv cuando su jefe, el presidente Donald Trump, señaló a Volodímir Zelenski de “dictador” y lo acusó de no querer llevar a cabo elecciones. La palabra crisis se queda corta para describir el impacto en Ucrania de sus declaraciones. Bajo ese contexto era previsible que el encuentro que tenían programado ayer en la tarde no sería fácil para ninguno de los dos.

What is the Online Safety Act? Law explained as Khan says bill ‘not fit for purpose’

The UK’s online misinformation laws have been criticised in the wake of last week’s far-right riots which were sparked, in part, by false information shared online.
Social media was thought to play a crucial role in allowing rioters to organise and incite violence, with limited moderation to stop them.
The events have brought last year’s Online Safety Act into the spotlight. The large bill, passed only last year, was supposed to give authorities greater powers to crack down on ‘illegal content’ share on the internet. Instead, it is largely dormant as details continue to be hashed out before its laws are implemented.
Sadiq Khan has said the bill is “not fit for purpose,” urging ministers to act “very, very quickly” to review it. The London mayor added: “the way the algorithms work, the way that misinformation can spread very quickly and disinformation … that’s a cause to be concerned, we’ve seen a direct consequence of this.”
His comments come as the threat of far-right violence has seemingly dissipated for now. Planned action failed to materialise on Wednesday as anti-racist demonstrators outnumbered the few would-be rioters who did turn up in cities all over the UK.
Following the week of tension, the UK’s online laws will no doubt continue to be subject to debate. Here’s everything you need to know about the Online Safety Act:
Passed in October 2023, the Online Safety Act is designed to make the internet “safer,” especially for children. A central element of the bill is the new duties it places upon social media firms, and the powers it gives Ofcom to enforce them.
The Department for Science, Innovation, and Technology (DSIT) says the bill will make the UK “the safest place in the world to be a child online.” It will require platforms to prevent children from accessing harmful or age-inappropriate content online.
The bill also names Ofcom as the UK’s independent regulator of Online Safety. This will give the telecoms watchdog new powers to enforce the rules laid out in the bill.
A number of new criminal offences are laid out as part of the act, cyberflashing, intimate image abuse (revenge porn), and epilepsy trolling. The most relevant offences to what the country has seen in recent days are “threatening communications,” and “sending false information intended to cause non-trivial harm.”
The act also now requires social media firms to take action against illegal content and activity. Both “racially or religiously aggravated public order offences” and “inciting violence” are included as types of illegal content.
Ofcom will be able to enforce the rules laid out in the Online Safety Act in a number of ways. Platforms will need to begin providing evidence to the watchdog of how they are meeting the set requirements. Ofcom will then evaluate and monitor these companies, before deciding to take action for non-compliance.
Companies can be fined up to £18 million or 10 per cent of their revenue worldwide (whichever amounts to more). Criminal action can even be taken against senior managers who fail to ensure information requests from Ofcom are fulfilled.
Specifically on child-related offences, the watchdog will be able to hold companies and managers criminally liable for non-compliance.
And in “extreme” cases, Ofcom will be able to require internet providers and advertisers to stop working with platforms, essentially banning them from operating in the country. This would be subject to agreement from the courts.
These powers raise questions about large social media firms operating in the UK, such as Twitter and Telegram, which have both been criticised in recent days for a lax approach to moderation on their platforms.
This has been a key question and criticism since the Online Safety Act was passed. The DSIT says that duties relating to illegal content will come into effect in “early 2025.” Meanwhile, in response to last week’s riots, Ofcom says they will be enforced from “later this year.”
Many experts have been critical of the consultation time between the bill’s passing and the enforcement of new powers, with several still casting doubt on the given timeline. Professor Matthew Feldman, a specialist on right-wing extremism who teaches at the University of York, says implementation will still be taking place “into 2026.”
He also says he is “not convinced” the bill’s scope is wide enough, arguing “there is a debate to be had about whether the bill, as stands, is sufficient for the scale and scope of the events we’ve seen.”
For their part, Ofcom has penned an open letter to online service providers operating in the UK, saying there is no need to “wait” for the new duties to come into effect before making “sites and apps safer for users.”
Ofcom’s Group Director for Online Safety, Gill Whitehead, said: “We expect continued engagement with companies over this period to understand the specific issues they face, and we welcome the proactive approaches that have been deployed by some services in relation to these acts of violence across the UK.”

Thomas Tuchel war ja kürzlich erst da. Highbury House, 75 Drayton Park. Der Sitz des FC Arsenal ist nicht weit entfernt von seinem neuen Arbeitgeber, der Football Association (FA). Wobei kein einziger Fußballplatz weit entfernt ist vom jeweils anderen in London, der Bolzhauptstadt der Welt, wo sich fast so viele Klubs tummeln wie in der gesamten Bundesliga. Sollte Tuchel damals noch Restzweifel verspürt haben, ob es eine schlaue Idee wäre, zurück nach England zu ziehen, dann starben sie Anfang April – bei der Generalprobe seiner rührigen Homecoming-Story.

Labour’s prisoner release plan a ‘dangerous gamble’, warns aunt of murdered Zara Aleena

Labour’s plans to release thousands of prisoners early is a “dangerous gamble with public safety”, the aunt of Zara Aleena has said.
Farah Naz, whose niece was murdered by a man who had been out of prison on licence for nine days, warned of the potential consequences if the probation service was unable to cope.
She said that in the case of Ms Aleena’s killer Jordan McSweeney, the probation service was "not fit to deliver supervision" or "act in a timely way" when he broke his licence conditions.
She told BBC Breakfast: “If the system cannot deal with those people being released into the community, then those people are not going to be supervised adequately.
"And when people, perpetrators, even thieves are not supervised adequately, crime can escalate. It doesn’t always escalate, but it can.
"Then we’ve got unsupervised people because of a poor probation service in the community and people become emboldened - ‘well I can do what I like if nobody is supervising me’ - and that’s what happened in our situation.
"It was a man that was emboldened because he was not supervised, he was not assessed, he was constantly allowed to do what he wanted to do, and therein lies a dangerous gamble with public safety with this move right now."
Law graduate Ms Aleena was killed by McSweeney as she walked home from a night out in June 2022.
Her aunt’s intervention comes as the new justice secretary, Shabana Mahmood, prepares to announce a string of measures to ease the overcrowding crisis in Britain’s prisons.
Among the expected measures are the automatic release of prisoners on standard determinate sentences after they have served just 40 per cent of their time. The current threshold is 50 per cent - but exemptions for serious violent and sexual offenders are expected.
There are fewer than 700 places remaining for adult men in UK prisons, which would be filled within weeks without action - with particular fears around the August bank holiday.
The usual buffer for prison places is more than double the current level, and if spaces fall below 300, they will have to stop accepting prisoners sent from courts.
"We’re operationally in trouble at less than 300 spaces left,” a senior prison source said.
Meanwhile police officials have warned that if prisons filled up, it would take just days for police cells around the UK to reach capacity as well. This would lead to a situation in which police were unable to arrest criminals, with sources fearful it could lead to unchecked criminality, with civil order potentially breaking down and widespread looting.
Ms Mahmood is expected to announce the emergency measures from a prison in Wellingborough on Friday afternoon, with officials having warned the crisis could not wait any longer.
The chairman of the Prison Officers Association has said the measures would give prisons around 12 to 18 months before further measures were needed, freeing up 4,000 to 5,000 spaces.
Asked if a potential move by the government to release certain inmates after serving 40% of their sentences was dangerous, Mark Fairhurst told BBC Breakfast: "We would hope it wouldn’t be, but what is more dangerous to the public is if we don’t act, so if we’re clogging up police cells they’re unable to arrest people because there’s nowhere for them to go.
"That’s more (of a) danger to the public.
"What we’re doing is releasing people early who are going to get released anyway at some point."
Prime minister Sir Keir Starmer said the Conservatives had left Labour to inherit a “broken” prison system and described his shock at the scale of the crisis.
Speaking to Channel 4 while attending the Nato summit in Washington, DC, Sir Keir said: “I’m shocked to be in this position, particularly having worked in criminal justice. It is a basic function of government that there should be enough prison places for the number of people that courts are sending to prison. That basic premise broke down under the last government, that is beyond irresponsible, and we’re going to have to pick up that mess and they ignored it.
“I can’t build a prison in seven days with the best will in the world. It is clearly a problem left by the last government. We cannot be in this terrible state and they ignored the problem, didn’t fix the problem, we are going to have to fix it.
“We have to make short-term measures that we will announce in due course and then of course we’ll have to do even further measures. I simply can’t build a prison in seven days.
“This is a terrible failure of the last government.”

Drei Jahre nach dem verheerenden Hochwasser in Hilden und Haan sind die meisten Schäden beseitigt, die Angst vor einer erneuten Flut bleibt jedoch.
|
Drei Jahre nach dem verheerenden Hochwasser in Hilden und Haan sind die meisten Schäden beseitigt, die Angst vor einer erneuten Flut bleibt jedoch.
In unserer Region ist niemand wie im Ahrtal gestorben, es gab keine Verletzten, das Ausmaß der Schäden war im Vergleich gering – trotzdem hat das Hochwasser vor drei Jahren bei vielen Menschen aus Hilden und Haan Spuren hinterlassen. Der Starkregen, die vollgelaufenen Keller, der Verlust von Erinnerungsstücken, die Aufräumarbeiten, der Kampf um Anerkennung bei den Versicherungen – diese traumatischen Erlebnisse sorgen auch heute noch dafür, dass viele Menschen bei länger anhaltendem oder besonders starkem Regen nervös werden, die Verabredung abbrechen oder die Wasserpumpe griffbereit ins Wohnzimmer stellen. Auch die Stadt hat aufgerüstet.
Hochwasser in Hilden und Haan
Die ersten Keller laufen in der Nacht vom 13. auf den 14. Juli 2021 voll. Tagelang hat es zuvor geregnet, der Boden war gesättigt – und dann kommt der Starkregen. Um kurz nach Mitternacht gehen die ersten Notrufe bei den Feuerwehren ein. Es ist erst der Anfang – denn nach einer kurzen Verschnaufpause setzt der Starkregen am Abend wieder ein. Die Itter tritt über ihre Ufer, setzt unter anderem die Hildener Altstadt und die Tiefgarage am Nove-Mesto-Platz unter Wasser. Die Düssel in Gruiten verlässt ebenfalls ihr Bett und sorgt für massive Schäden. Die Feuerwehren werden aus ganz NRW unterstützt, am Ende müssen sie mehrere Hundert Einsätze abarbeiten. In den Tagen darauf stapelt sich der Sperrmüll an den Straßen, unentwegt arbeiten Bautrockner gegen die Nässe in den Wänden, Menschen helfen sich gegenseitig bei der Beseitigung der Schäden.
Bereits in der Nacht auf den 14. Juli 2021 traten Bäche in Teilen der Region über ihre Ufer. Viele Keller wurden überflutet. Doch der Regen nahm immer weiter zu, sodass weitere Bäche übertraten. Erst am 15. Juli beruhigte sich die Lage. Nach dem 14. Juli 2021 rücken aus ganz Deutschland Rettungskräfte von Feuerwehr und THW an, um in Hilden und Haan zu helfen. 483 Einsätze verzeichnet allein die Hildener Feuerwehr. In den Tagen nach der Flut rollt eine Hilfswelle an: Hildener und Haaner, die nicht betroffen waren, helfen den Hochwasser-Opfern unter anderem beim Ausräumen der Keller. Der Bauhof fährt Sonderschichten, um den Sperrmüll abzuholen. Die Aufräumarbeiten dauern Wochen, die Tiefgarage am Nove-Mesto-Platz bleibt noch bis zum Jahreswechsel 2022/23 gesperrt.
Das dauert lange. Während viele Menschen schnell wieder in ihren Alltag zurückfinden, müssen einige monatelang auf Ihr Haus verzichten, weil es komplett saniert werden muss. Auch die Tiefgarage am Nove-Mesto-Platz bleibt lange gesperrt.
Viele Menschen haben im Nachgang ihr Haus gegen Hochwasser geschützt. Während die einen beispielsweise Wasserpumpen und einen Generator gekauft haben, haben sich andere hochwassersichere Kellerfenster einbauen lassen oder bereits gefüllt Sandsäcke in den Keller gelegt, die bei Reisen vorsorglich so verteilt werden, dass das Wasser den Weg in einen Abfluss im Waschkeller findet.
Dutzende Keller nach Starkregen in Hilden vollgelaufen
Auch die Städte haben aufgerüstet. Die Hildener Feuerwehr hat beispielsweise ihre internen Abläufe überprüft und angepasst, erklärt Beigeordneter Peter Stuhlträger: „Zum einen wurden Tablets angeschafft, mit denen die Einsatzkräfte während eines Einsatzes mithilfe der Starkregengefahrenkarte die Schutzmaßnahmen vor Ort anpassen können. Zum anderen hat die Feuerwehr zwei neue Modulrollwagen ,Wasserschaden‘ beschafft. Auf diesen befinden sich unter anderem Schläuche, Pumpen, Stromerzeuger und Ersatzsprit. Sie können autark an jedem Einsatzort eingesetzt werden. Außerdem verfügt die Feuerwehr über 5000 ungefüllte Sandsäcke, die bei Bedarf befüllt werden können.“ Nach mehrjähriger Bauzeit sei zudem das Sirenennetz mittlerweile mit 13 von 14 funktionsfähigen Sirenenstandorten fast flächendeckend ausgerüstet. „Dadurch und durch WarnApps kann die Bevölkerung frühzeitig vor Gefahren gewarnt werden“, erklärt Peter Stuhlträger.
Weiterhin werde im regulären Planungsprozess für Sanierungen und Neubauten von Gebäuden überprüft, inwieweit das betroffene Grundstück dem Risiko von Überschwemmungen bei Starkregen ausgesetzt sei. „Die Ergebnisse der Analyse fließen in die Planung ein und führen dazu, dass besondere Schutzmaßnahmen für Gebäude ergriffen werden und die Geländemodellierung an das Risiko angepasst wird“, erklärt der Bau- und Umweltdezernent weiter. Als konkretes Beispiel nennt er das neue „Haus des Lernens“, das am vorhandenen Standort der Grundschule Beethovenstraße entstehen soll. Dabei werde einerseits das Gelände entsprechend modelliert, andererseits auch manuelle Flutschotten vor den Türen sowie druckdichte Kellerlichtschächte installiert. Die Flutschotten und die Kellerlichtschächte seien bereits im Rahmen der Sanierung installiert worden. Die Geländemodellierung erfolge bei der Neugestaltung des Grundstücks für das „Haus des Lernens“.
Itter sorgt zuletzt vor 60 Jahren für Hochwasser in Hilden
Grundsätzlich würden bei Neubau oder Sanierung von städtischen Gebäuden, wenn möglich, Retentions-Gründächer angelegt, die das Regenwasser auf dem Dach zwischenspeichern können und die Kanalisation bei Starkregen entlasten, so Stuhlträger weiter. „Außerdem wird das Regenwasserkanalnetz ständig kontrolliert. Wo immer möglich werden zusätzliche Speicherräume innerhalb des Netzes geschaffen. Dabei müssen jedoch die dichte Bebauung und Genehmigungsauflagen (zum Beispiel die maximale Einleitungsmenge in das Gewässer und der Grundwasserstand) berücksichtigt werden.“
Die Stadt hat auf ihrer Homepage eine Sektion für Anwohner eingerichtet, in denen sie sich über Maßnahmen gegen Hochwasser informieren können. Außerdem seien dort auch die offiziellen Hochwassergefahrenkarten der Bezirksregierung sowie die Starkregengefahrenkarte einsehbar. „Die Karten zeigen mögliche Gefährdungsbereiche. Bei extremem Wetter können jedoch auch andere Gebiete betroffen sein“, erklärt Stuhlträger. „Vorsorgemaßnahmen der Gewässerunterhaltung durch den BRW oder die Stadt Hilden können in der Regel nur Schutz vor Überflutungen bieten, die statistisch betrachtet etwa alle 100 Jahre auftreten. Es ist daher wichtig, dass jede*r selbst aktiv wird und sich vor Überflutungsschäden schützt“, erklärt der Bau- und Umweltdezernent.

LONDON, Jan 18 — Manchester United and Scotland great Denis Law has died at the age of 84, sparking a wave of heartfelt tributes to a man known at Old Trafford as “The King”.
Law was a member of United’s European Cup-winning side under Matt Busby in 1968, when they became the first English club to lift the trophy, though he was injured for the final.
Capped 55 times by Scotland, he remains his country’s joint all-time leading scorer with 30 goals alongside Kenny Dalglish and is the only Scottish player to win the Ballon d’Or, in 1964.
Law — part of the famed “Holy Trinity” at Old Trafford alongside Bobby Charlton and George Best — was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia in 2021.
His death was confirmed yesterday “with a heavy heart” by his family, who said “he fought a tough battle but finally he is now at peace”.
“We would like to thank everyone who contributed to his wellbeing and care, past and much more recently,” the statement added. “We know how much people supported and loved him and that love was always appreciated and made the difference. Thank you.”
Law scored a total of 237 goals in 404 appearances during an 11-year spell at Old Trafford until 1973, which places him third behind Wayne Rooney and Charlton on United’s all-time list.
Manchester United said the club was mourning the loss of “the King of the Stretford End”.
“He will always be celebrated as one of the club’s greatest and most beloved players,” United added.
“The ultimate goalscorer, his flair, spirit and love for the game made him the hero of a generation.”
The Scotland national team called Law “a true great”, adding: “We will not see his likes again.”
Rooney paid tribute on X, posting: “Legend. Thoughts with all Denis’ family and friends.”
‘Football giant’
Former United and England captain Bryan Robson, who worked with Law in an ambassadorial role at Old Trafford, described the Scot as a “fantastic man”.
“We have lost one of football’s giants both as a player and a gentleman. It’s incredibly sad,” Robson wrote in a column in the Daily Mail.
“Denis was more than just a fantastic footballer, he was a fantastic man. So generous with his time and everything delivered with that great sense of humour of his.”
Law began his career at Huddersfield Town and also two spells with Manchester City plus one with Italian club Torino.
He was sold for a British record fee three times during his career.
During his time at United, Law won the FA Cup and English top-flight twice, in 1965 and 1967.
However, a cartilage injury forced him to miss the famous 4-1 victory over Benfica in the European Cup final at Wembley in 1968.
Law is the only player to have two statues dedicated to him at Old Trafford, one as part of the “United Trinity” alongside Best and Charlton.
Law’s other previous clubs added their tributes.
City, the current English champions, said the “whole of Manchester” was mourning.
In a reply to United’s X post, the club said: “The whole of Manchester, including everyone at City, is mourning with you.”
Huddersfield called their former player an “immortal” of football while Torino said he was an “iconic figure” in the club’s history.
In the years after his retirement Law worked as a broadcaster as well as for numerous charities.
Former Scotland international Joe Jordan said he was a “proper icon”.
“Denis was a special player and to lose someone like him, I think will affect an awful lot of Manchester United fans,” Jordan told the BBC.
“A proper icon for his ability on the field to score goals but he had a special edge to him, not just as a player but as a person. He was a special player.” — AFP

Walton Goggins has every reason to be grumpy. The US actor has relocated from paradise to the post-apocalypse when I catch up with him in Los Angeles. More specifically, he’s gone from filming the third series of The White Lotus on the island of Koh Samui in Thailand to shooting the second season of the video-game adaptation Fallout for Amazon.
Goggins has been on set since November, which he admits has been “psychologically taxing”, given the two-and-a-half hours in a make-up chair it takes to create the Ghoul – the mutated, noseless, 23rd-century bounty hunter he plays. The previous day was an 18-hour shoot – “was at it all day yesterday and the day before that, and again, tomorrow, and yeah, just having the time of my life,” he says, with a certain resignation.
The 53-year-old talks in a gravelly, Southern cadence that has something of the charisma and inspired fervour of a Sixties street-corner preacher. Goggins grew up in Georgia, in the Deep South and is one of the world’s great character actors, a reputation honed playing a corrupt cop in seven seasons of The Shield, the “Sheriff” in Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight and disreputable televangelist Baby Billy Freeman in long-running satire The Righteous Gemstones.
In The White Lotus, Goggins gives a masterclass in misery as the preoccupied, permanently irritated Rick Hatchet, who arrives at the luxury wellness resort with his girlfriend Chelsea, played by the Bafta-winning British actress Aimee Lou Wood. Rick and Chelsea are The White Lotus’s most fascinating couple – her liveliness repeatedly hitting the wall of his tetchy gloom in often funny ways, yet there is much more to them.
“Rick is under the weight of getting through another day; that’s when their problems begin,” Goggins notes. “But they end every evening in this almost enviable, intimate way, with the tenderness that they have for each other. It makes me cry, to be quite honest with you.”
The actors have chemistry, but there was no screen test. Goggins stresses, “Never had a face-to-face beforehand.” He was cast first, Wood later, but they hit it off at once. “I’m such a fan of Aimee’s,” he says, “and the very first time that we met was in Thailand, even though we began texting before that.” From those messages, Goggins says, “I thought, ‘OK, this has the potential to be a very special person in my life’. And when we had lunch together for the first time, we were three minutes into the conversation when I think we both knew that, ‘Oh, this person is, on some levels, a soulmate’.”
Few, of course, will fail to notice the age gap between the two. Wood was still in her twenties when the show was filmed. “I think that’s such a cheap observation, the much younger girlfriend. That’s a waste of time and a distraction, to be quite honest with you – a connection between two souls who’ve been walking this earth for maybe thousands of years, if you believe in that sort of thing. They recognise each other instantly. And there is a connection beyond the world of words. And that’s what Aimee Lou and I had right out of the gate.”
So he thinks society has it wrong in its disapproving attitude towards age-gap relationships? “Well, I mean, it’s been going on for so long, hasn’t it… an older man and a younger woman. My God, how trite is that? It’s a trope at this point, so to really discuss it is just a waste of time. Why would you care if two people find peace and a modicum of joy out of another human being? What does it matter to you? I don’t care. I like to see people happy together.”
It’s unmistakable how Goggins talks of Chelsea and Rick as real people. I wonder if it offers an insight into how he approaches a character. “I don’t believe in playing ‘characters’,” he says. “I hate the word. I think it’s a word that is used to communicate with people that don’t do this for a living. I don’t become a character. You know, my son, when he was a pirate as a kid or an astronaut, or now he’s like a Mongolian linguistics professor at 14 – that’s what he wants to do – he just is that person.
“And so to believe that is very simple. It’s a child’s game – you turn yourself over to an imaginary set of circumstances and it’s no more complicated than that. Read the script, like Tony [Anthony] Hopkins said, 250 to 300 times, and that is where the alchemy happens… I believe that these people exist in the world. I believe Rick and Chelsea have been on the road for three years together.”
When he’s not on the road himself, Goggins lives in a tiny town in the Hudson Valley, New York, with his second wife, the screenwriter and director Nadia Conners, and their son Augustus. Goggins has experienced tragedy – his first wife, Leanne Knight, died by suicide in 2004. “Life on the other side of that,” he said last year, seemed “really unrecoverable for me”. Over a long period, he took himself off and travelled, spending time in Thailand, among other places, and slowly found his balance again.
This season of The White Lotus is in part a satire of Western consumerist attitudes to spirituality. Goggins has been immersed in spiritual exploration since he was a child, “going to Baptist churches, Pentecostal churches… I’ve been to a couple of snake-handling churches,” he notes. It didn’t help him in shooting episode three, when Goggins found himself having to confront a mortal fear, many times over in a scene set in a snake farm. “I am terrified of snakes,” he says. “And when I say that, you would think, ‘OK, so he’s afraid of snakes.’ No. Not afraid. I am terrified. It is a glitch in my DNA. And being around snakes, touching snakes, I have a deep, profound panic attack… those two days were some of the worst of my experience.”
His mother was a devotee of the Indian yogi Paramahansa Yogananda, who had him reading mystic authors such as Joel Goldsmith, and took him to New Mexico for a spiritual workshop that involved her walking on coals. He’s explored many other belief systems since. “I think I’m a spiritual person that finds the commonality in all of them.” Yet he’s quick to point out that “nothing has moved me more than the performative aspect of a Southern Baptist or Southern Pentecostal preacher”.
Has he come across any Christian evangelists since he began playing the unscrupulous Baby Billy Freeman? “Many, and in many different countries in the world,” he says. “They love it. I have one friend in particular who married into a Righteous Gemstone-esque family. They love this parody on their life, because they see it reflecting their insanity and chaos and the amount of money that flows through their hands”.
There’s a “lived” quality to Goggins that’s very masculine – white open-necked shirt, tough-guy jaw, raw-hide skin, Nick Cave/Montgomery Clift forehead. I wonder how he feels about Mark Zuckerberg’s recent suggestion that we should all be embracing masculine energy. “I don’t think about masculine or feminine,” he says. “I am now the father of a son, and I never talked to him about, ‘What does it mean to be a man?’ I talked to him about, ‘What does it mean to respect people, to listen to people, to be a good human?’ Those are the things that matter. I don’t participate in that conversation about masculinity or toxic masculinity, or the lack of masculinity, or giving over men’s power to women. I think it’s a f---ing waste of time.”
I want to know if Goggins sees a natural correspondence between his Southern roots and Wood’s in the North of England. (She grew up in the village of Bramhall, in Greater Manchester.) “That’s what it felt like to me,” he says. “I’ve never been to Manchester, so I can’t comment on the people or the place, but if the North in England is tantamount to the South in America….” – he links their distance from the wealth-generating centres of New York and London – “…people are more open, they are friendlier, they’re more accessible. They have an incredible sense of humour.”
He and Wood talked about him going on stage at some point in the future. However, as Goggins notes, “I was 19-years-old with $300 in my pocket when I moved to LA, so I had to go to work. And that’s where I found my religion on camera – between action and cut.”

El centro barcelonés, que ha incrementado sus visitantes en un 23%, pondrá el foco en los nuevos avances científicos y las ciudades y el turismo
A falta de unos días para que finalice el año, el CCCB hace un balance “feliz” este 2024 en el que ha celebrado su treinta aniversario y ha visto crecer su público en un 23%, con una estimación de aquí al 30 de diciembre de 470.000 visitantes a sus exposiciones y su programa de debates, por el que han pasado 350 ponentes (el 30% del ámbito internacional). Pero si algo le llena de orgullo a su directora, Judit Carrera, es eso que le han repetido muchas veces a lo largo de los últimos meses: “Es difícil entender Barcelona sin el CCCB”. “No hacemos nunca nada solos, todos nuestros proyectos son compartidos”, señala Carrera, que hace suya la máxima de Hannah Arendt de que es imprescindible pensar en compañía, y asegura que esta vinculación con el ecosistema cultural local (de las universidades y centros de investigación científica al mundo editorial, el de la creación artística, el cine o el activismo) no es incompatible con una ambición internacional que tiene su reflejo en el periplo de exposiciones propias, como la de Francesc Tosquelles, que se ha presentado en Nueva York; Constelación gráfica, sobre las jóvenes autoras del cómic que viajará al festival de Angulema, Suburbia, que se verá en Viena o Amazonias, actualmente en cartel, que tendrá una segunda vida en Brasil.
En cuanto al programa del 2025, el CCCB cuenta con un ambicioso presupuesto de 16,6 millones de euros (un 6,9 % más que el anterior) y se articulará en torno a tres nombres propios: Chris Ware, uno de los autores de cómic más relevantes del presente; el pensador Georges Didi-Hubermann y Mercè Rodorera, la primera mujer escritora a la que el CCCB dedica una exposición, que retoma así una línea de éxito que en el pasado se adentró en el universo literario de Borges, Joyce, Kadka, Calders o Espriu.
El centro contará con un presupuesto de 16,6 millones de euros, un 6,9 % más que el año anterior
“Desde hace tiempo teníamos muchísimas ganas de dedicar una gran exposición a una de las escritoras fundamentales de la literatura catalana y probablemente una de sus autoras universales, cuya vida estuvo marcada por la Guerra Civil, el exilio, la II Guerra Mundial y el París ocupado por los nazis”, reconoce Carrera, que no obstante precisa que la exposición no está concebida como un proyecto biográfico sino como un recorrido por sus grandes temas, “analizando también de maneera constante su dualidad inseparable entre la luz y la oscuridad, la ternura y la crueldad, el lodo y el cielo. Mercè Rodoreda ha sido interpretada o bien como una autora luminosa, burguesa y cursi o bien como una autora vinculada al mundo del horror de la guerra. Y lo que demuestra está exposición, comisariada por Neus Penalba y Martí Sales, es que esta ambivalencia está presente desde su primera obra”.
Mercè Rodorera. Un bosque, que así se titula la exposición que se abrirá el 4 de diciembre, incorporará obras de artistas contemporáneos en los que ha dejado su impronta, desde Èlia Llach y Mar Arza hasta Oriol Vilapuig y Cabosanroque. Pero la temporada comenzará mucho antes, en abril, con Chris Ware. Dibujar es pensar, una muestra en la que participará activamente el autor que ha marcado un antes y un después en el lenguaje del cómic, mostrando lo sutiles, complejas y serias que podían ser las narraciones gráficas.
Por último, de mayo a septiembre, se presentará En el aire conmovido...., , en la que Georges Didi-Hubermann parte del Romance de la luna, luna de Federico García Lorca y su concepto de duende. Una muestra sobre el poder de emoción de las imágenes que contiene más de 300 obras que van de Goya y Miró a Pasolini, Brecht, Goethe, Picasso o Man Ray, y actualmente puede verse en el Reina Sofía de París. Completando el programa, los meses de noviembre y diciembre, desembarcará una nueva edición del World Press Photo.
En cuanto al programa de debates que dirige Elisabet Goula, Tomar la palabra, las actividades girarán en torno a tres grandes ejes: Ciencia radical, en la que en colaboración con los centros punteros de investigación científica de Catalunya poetas, artistas y pensadores analizarán aquellas cuestiones en las que están trabajando los laboratorios y que transformarán nuestras vidas; La ciudad y el turismo, y una nueva edición del festival Kosmopolis, con el foco en Corea del Sur.

Cork O´Connor, whose wife is a full-blooded Ojibwe and who is half Native American himself, retired from his job as Aurora, Minnesota, police chief a while back. He now runs a fast-food place, but when trouble comes to Minnesota´s Great North, Cork still is apt to end up in the middle of it.
In "Spirit Crossing," William Kent Krueger´s 20th novel featuring Cork, there´s trouble aplenty.
For starters, the daughter of an influential politician is missing, and the FBI, state law enforcement agencies and the press are all over it. Oil pipeline construction is about to intrude on the wetlands of Spirit Crossing, an area sacred to the Native Americans, and the protesters and counter-protesters are gathering.
Meanwhile, Cork´s daughter, Annie, who worked as an aide worker in Central America for years, has just returned home. With her, she´s brought a Guatemalan nurse named Maria and a shattering secret she is reluctant to reveal to anyone.
The action begins innocently when Cork leads several members of his large family, including his 7-year-old grandson Waaboo (Little Rabbit) to a secret blueberry patch near an abandoned shack in the woods. As they near the patch, Waaboo discovers a shallow grave and says he can hear a sad girl´s spirit calling to him.
FBI and state law enforcement agencies descend, seizing control and ordering local authorities not to interfere. But when the body ends up being that of a Native American girl, they lose interest.
The investigation falls to Cork´s successor, Aurora Police Chief Marsha Dross, who enlists Cork and the Iron Lake Ojibwe Tribal Police. Soon they discover more bodies of Native American girls, Cork suspects they may be connected to the missing white girl, suspicion falls on pipeline workers, and someone fearful of Waaboo´s visions targets him for murder.
Krueger has no Native American blood himself, but as usual he treats native culture and mysticism with understanding and respect. His prose and character development are superb, and his vivid descriptions bring Minnesota´s north woods to life.
"Spirit Crossing" returns to three of the author´s familiar themes: the rape of the natural world in the pursuit of profit, the mistreatment of Native Americans, and, with emphasis this time, that thousands of Native American women and girls are missing and not much ever seems to be done about it.
The author puts this thought in the mouth of one of Cork´s relatives: "To be an Indian is to walk with loss. It goes before us and it follows us. It is our shadow self."

Bei Fortuna hat Rouwen Hennings immer noch ein hohes Ansehen. Gleichzeitig hat der ehemalige Stürmer der Düsseldorfer seinen früheren Klub bestens im Blick. Wie er die Chancen der Rot-Weißen einschätzt. Was sein Aufstiegswunsch ist.
Rouwen Hennings macht es sich gemütlich und lächelt freundlich in die Kamera. Im Hintergrund fällt nicht wirklich auf, in welchem Raum seiner vier Wände sich der ehemalige Stürmer von Fortuna aufhält. Dann löst der 37-Jährige das Rätsel auf, es ist das Zimmer seiner Tochter, die den Raum künstlerisch aufgewertet hat. Denn hinter Hennings hängt eine aufgemalte Collage mit den Wappen seiner Ex-Vereine an der Wand.
„So schön kann ich nicht malen, das war meine Tochter“, sagt Hennings mit einem Lächeln beim Sky-Format „HvK & Tusche – Dein Zweitligatalk“ mit Moderator Hartmut von Kameke und Experte Torsten Mattuschka angesprochen auf die Collage. Auf dieser ist sein Jugendverein VfL Oldesloe verewigt, genauso wie unter anderem der Karlsruher SC – aber natürlich auch Fortuna.
A post shared by Sky Sport DE (@skysportde)
Die Rheinländer stehen in der Zweiten Liga aktuell nach sechs Spieltagen ungeschlagen an der Tabellenspitze. Ein Umstand, der Hennings nach den Veränderungen im Kader wie den Abgängen von Yannik Engelhardt, Christos Tzolis und Ao Tanaka während der Transferperiode schwer beeindruckt. „Sie haben eine schlagkräftige Truppe hingestellt und auch die Leistungsträger, die gegangen sind, wurden jetzt nach und nach ordentlich ersetzt. Das muss man erst einmal auffangen, aber das haben sie bisher gut gemacht“, meint Hennings.
So oft fielen die Fortuna-Profis in dieser Saison schon aus
Der Familienvater ist sich auch sicher, dass manch einer nach dem hartem Rückschlag und dem verpassten Aufstieg in die Bundesliga an Fortuna gezweifelt hat. „Ich glaube, viele haben damit gerechnet, dass der Saisonstart holprig wird durch das traurige Erlebnis in der Relegation. Dann muss man das erst einmal verdauen und hat eine kürzere Vorbereitung", sagt Hennings und ergänzt: „Das alles so wegzustecken und dann so zu starten, wenn man das Pokalspiel mal ausklammert, da machen sie ihre Sache in der Liga wirklich gut.“
Angesichts der positiven sportlichen Realität fragen ihn seine beiden Gesprächspartner, was er den Düsseldorfern in dieser Saison zutraut. „Sehr, sehr viel“, verdeutlicht der Angreifer und nennt die allgemeine Formel zum Aufstieg: „Man braucht eine gewisse Qualität. Was auch wichtig ist, ist so eine mannschaftliche Geschlossenheit, wenn eine Mannschaft über einen gewissen Zeitraum in einem Fundament schon länger zusammenspielt.“
Alle Distanzen – so viele Kilometer muss Fortuna in der Saison 2024/25 fahren
Dabei erinnert sich Hennings zurück an seine aktive Zeit bei der Fortuna, mit der er auch erfolgreich war. Damals war der Stürmer mit den Rheinländern in der Zweiten Liga ebenfalls auf einem guten Weg: „Als wir in der Saison 17/18 waren, wurden wir wöchentlich gefragt, ob wir aufsteigen wollen. Natürlich wollen alle aufsteigen und gewinnen. Es ist aber ganz wichtig, dass man sich auf das Tagesgeschäft und den nächsten Gegner konzentriert und nicht den Rechenschieber herausholt.“
Großes Rechnen ist bei den Rot-Weißen nach sechs Partien natürlich noch nicht angesagt. Träumen dürften die Fans dennoch von einer Rückkehr in die Bundesliga, auch Hennings träumt davon: „Wenn ich die Entwicklung bei der Fortuna sehe, wie sie sich stetig weiterentwickelt und in der Tabelle immer klettert, dann würde es reichen.“
Diese Verträge laufen bei Fortuna im Sommer aus

Wenn sich Hennings aussuchen dürfte, welche Mannschaften den Schritt ins Oberhaus machen, dann fällt seine Wahl ohne zu zögern auf zwei seiner ehemaligen Verein: Spitzenreiter Fortuna und Verfolger Karlsruher SC, beide Klubs führen die Liga an. Geht es nach Hennings, sollte sich an dieser Situation nichts mehr ändern: „Wenn es so bleiben würde, wäre das natürlich überragend, weil es für mich zwei sehr spezielle Vereine sind.“ Wie speziell sie für ihn sind, das beweist die aufgemalte Collage im Zimmer seiner Tochter.

Woher kommt der Wirbel um "Trusted Flagger"?

Die Aufregung in einigen Medien und Köpfen war riesig: Stephan Brandner von der AfD spricht von "Netzdenunzianten", FDP-Politiker Wolfgang Kubicki in der "Bild" von einer "grünen Zensuranstalt". Anfang Oktober hat die Bundesnetzagentur erstmalig sogenannte "Trusted Flagger" zugelassen. Sie sollen helfen, illegale Inhalte im Netz schneller zu finden und zu entfernen. Doch das Konzept stößt auf Kritik. Was ist da los?
In der digitalen Welt stehen wir vor der Herausforderung, die Freiheit des Internets mit dem Schutz vor illegalen und schädlichen Inhalten in Einklang zu bringen. Als ein Instrument, das zu erreichen, hat der Digital Services Act (DSA) der Europäischen Union die sogenannten "Trusted Flagger" oder vertrauenswürdigen Hinweisgeber erdacht.
Was sind "Trusted Flaggers"?
"Trusted Flagger" sind unabhängige Organisationen, die von den nationalen Koordinierungsstellen der EU-Mitgliedsstaaten zugelassen werden, um potenziell rechtswidrige Inhalte auf großen Online-Plattformen wie Facebook, Instagram oder YouTube zu identifizieren und zu melden. Die Plattformen sind dann verpflichtet, diese Meldungen vorrangig zu behandeln und zeitnah zu prüfen.
Wichtig ist dabei zu betonen: Die endgültige Entscheidung über die Entfernung eines Inhalts liegt weiterhin bei den Plattformen selbst. "Trusted Flagger" haben keine Befugnis, Löschungen direkt anzuordnen.
Wie funktioniert das System?
Zuständig für die Zulassung von "Trusted Flaggern" ist in Deutschland die Bundesnetzagentur. Als bisher erste und einzige Organisation ist die Meldestelle gegen Hetze im Netz "REspect!" als Hinweisgeber zugelassen.
Wenn Nutzer "REspect" verdächtige Inhalte melden prüft die Meldestelle diese und gibt potenziell strafbare Inhalte an das Bundeskriminalamt (BKA) weiter. Das BKA und eine spezialisierte Staatsanwaltschaft prüfen dann ob ein Anfangsverdacht erfüllt wird. Nur wenn ein Verdacht besteht, meldet "REspect" den Inhalt an die entsprechende Plattform, die dann über das weitere Vorgehen entscheidet. Dieses mehrstufige Verfahren soll sicherstellen, dass nur tatsächlich problematische Inhalte gemeldet werden.
Woher kommt die Aufregung um die "Trusted Flagger"?
Ausschlaggebend für die Zensur-Vorwürfe war eine ungenaue Pressemitteilung der Bundesnetzagentur, die inzwischen überarbeitet wurde. Darin hieß es: "Plattformen sind verpflichtet, auf Meldungen von "Trusted Flaggern" sofort zu reagieren. Illegale Inhalte, Hass und Fake News können sehr schnell und ohne bürokratische Hürde entfernt werden."
Hass und die Verbreitung von Fake News sind aber nicht automatisch Straftaten. Kritiker des Konzepts befürchteten also eine Zensurinfrastruktur ohne rechtliche Grundlage. Mittlerweile schreibt die Bundesnetzagentur von "illegalen Inhalten, illegalem Hass und illegalen Fake News" und ergänzt:
Ein weiterer Punkt, der kritisch gesehen wird, betrifft die Unabhängigkeit der Koordinierungsstelle für Digitale Dienste, die für die "Trusted Flagger" zuständig ist. Obwohl sie explizit keine Weisungen aus der Politik oder aus der Bundesregierung entgegennehmen soll, wird die Aufgabe aktuell noch kommissarisch vom Präsidenten der Bundesnetzagentur übernommen, bis die Stelle endgültig besetzt ist.
"Trusted Flaggers" sind ein etabliertes Instrument
Interessanterweise ist das Konzept der "Trusted Flagger" nicht völlig neu. Große Plattformen arbeiten bereits seit vielen Jahren mit unabhängigen Organisationen zusammen, die bestimmte Arten von potenziell illegalen Inhalten melden. Dabei geht es zum Beispiel um Darstellungen von Kindesmissbrauch oder Verstöße gegen das Urheberrecht.
Dass die EU das Konzept nun übernimmt ist ein Versuch, verschiedene Interessen zu balancieren: den Schutz vor illegalen Inhalten einerseits und die Wahrung der Meinungsfreiheit andererseits. Entscheidend wird sein, wie das System in der Praxis umgesetzt wird. Eine kontinuierliche Überprüfung und gegebenenfalls Anpassung sind unerlässlich, um Missbrauch zu verhindern und die Grundrechte aller Internetnutzer zu schützen.

Met Police launches appeal to victims of Harrods boss Mohamed Al Fayed

The Met Police has launched an appeal for victims of Harrods boss Mohamed Al Fayed to come forward as it explores bringing any of his accomplices to justice.
The force said it has identified 19 criminal allegations involving Al Fayed relating to 19 separate women that were reported between 2005 and 2023.
In a statement the Met said the offences were alleged to have taken place between 1979 and 2013, and three were of rape, 15 were sexual assault and one related to trafficking.
But now detectives have revealed they have received fresh allegations from victims, although it is not confirming the number, and are asking for anyone else who has not come forward before now to do so.
Officers say although there is no prospect of convicting Al Fayed - who died last year aged 94 - there could still be criminal charges brought against others involved.
Dozens of women who previously worked for Al Fayed have come forward with claims of rape and sexual assault in recent days, following the initial allegations which were set out in a BBC documentary on September 19.
The Met said its staff are currently making contact with other organisations, including lawyers representing individuals whose allegations have featured in recent media coverage.
It said specially trained officers with experience in dealing with sexual offences have been put in place to deal with any new allegations.
In the meantime the force said it was carrying out a full review of all existing allegations reported to them about Al Fayed to ensure there are no new lines of enquiry based on new information which has emerged.
Between 2005 and 2023 the Met approached the Crown Prosecution Service on five occasions – two of these, in 2009 and 2015, were to pass full files of evidence. The remaining three approaches were for early investigative advice.
In all 19 allegations that were reported to police there was no further action taken against Mohamed Al Fayed.
Current managing director of luxury store Harrods Michael Ward said in a statement earlier today that it is clear Al Fayed 'presided over a toxic culture of secrecy, intimidation, fear of repercussion and sexual misconduct'.
Mr Ward, who worked for Al Fayed for four years, said he was 'not aware of his criminality and abuse' and described it as a 'shameful period in the business' history'.
He said an independent review was underway into issues arising from the allegations and that he had 'provided all the information I have to ensure my own conduct can be reviewed alongside that of my colleagues'.
In his statement, Mr Ward said: 'As we have already stated, we failed our colleagues and for that we are deeply sorry.
'As someone who has worked at Harrods since 2006, and therefore worked for Fayed until the change of ownership in 2010, I feel it is important to make it clear that I was not aware of his criminality and abuse.
'While it is true that rumours of his behaviour circulated in the public domain, no charges or allegations were ever put to me by the police, the CPS, internal channels or others.
'Had they been, I would, of course, have acted immediately.'
Mr Ward continued: 'Fayed, who owned Harrods from 1985-2010, operated this business as his own personal fiefdom.
'It is now clear that he presided over a toxic culture of secrecy, intimidation, fear of repercussion and sexual misconduct.
'The picture that is now emerging suggests that he did this wherever he operated.'
MailOnline was told that Mr Ward sent a similar letter to Harrods employees earlier this week.
But a source slammed the 'insensitivity towards victims of abuse', and said: 'Harrods has created an email address for employees to seek support - '[email protected]' - which is highly inappropriate given that it references the name of the alleged perpetrator.
'This forces victims to engage with his name when seeking help, adding unnecessary distress.'
The internal memo was criticised for using formal, corporate language that 'may come across as impersonal and detached', using phrases like 'settling claims in the quickest way possible'.
Five brave survivors alleged that they had to barricade doors with chairs to get away from Al Fayed.
Former employees said he would fly them to Paris under the guise of a work trip, take away their passports and put them in hotel rooms without locks.
Chilling claims say he monitored them with CCTV in their own homes, phone tapping and he threatened their families if they ever dared to speak out about the abuse.
BBC journalists looking into his predatory history gathered the stories of more than 20 women who said they had been abused by him, and 'up to 200' more have come forward since.
The women said they underwent an invasive medical procedure to get their jobs and it was sold as a MOT, telling them 'aren't you lucky, it would cost you thousands'.
One revealed that Al Fayed told her to call him 'Papa' - and she tried to use this to convince him to leave her alone, telling him she thought of him as a father figure.
So horrific was the alleged abuse suffered at the hands of Al-Fayed, lawyers representing his victims have compared him to sexual predators Jimmy Savile and Jeffrey Epstein.
Lawyers warned that his alleged offending could go further, 'with victims all over the world' - with investigations now taking place into other businesses owned by Al-Fayed, such as Fulham Football Club.
Further claims were levelled at Harrods, including that the store was plagued by a 'toxic' culture under Al-Fayed's 25 years in charge, as the wealthy businessman 'preyed upon... his own employees for his own sexual gratification' and tried to 'silence' his vulnerable victims.
One victim who works at the store said other staff who enabled his alleged disgusting behaviour are still working there.
Mr Ward continued: 'This was a shameful period in the business' history, however, the Harrods of today is unrecognisable to Harrods under his ownership.
'As detailed new information has come to light over the past 18 months, the business has established a settlement process, designed in consultation with independent, external experts in personal injury litigation.
'We encourage former colleagues to contact us using this process so that we can provide the support, and recourse, they need.'
Mr Ward said he would 'in no way influence' an independent review into the allegations.
He said: 'Alongside this there is an independent review led by a non-executive committee of the board to further consider the issues arising from the allegations.
'I am not part of the committee conducting this review and will in no way influence its operation or recommendations.
'However, I have provided all the information I have to ensure my own conduct can be reviewed alongside that of my colleagues.
'I have also stepped back from my charity trustee positions while this review is taking place.'
Some women have claimed they were subjected to 'intrusive and wholly unnecessary' gynaecological tests to work for Mr Al Fayed and have alleged the purpose of the tests was for checking for sexually transmitted infections.
Alleged victims are set to lodge a complaint against Dr Ann Coxon, claiming she has 'questions to answer' over the examinations.
Dr Coxon declined to comment on the matter.
A General Medical Council spokeswoman said: 'If we identify any potential fitness to practise concerns about individual doctors, we will thoroughly examine all relevant information and take action as appropriate.'
Commander Stephen Clayman said: 'We recognise the significance of the allegations made against Mohamed Al Fayed and the impact this has had on those affected.
'It is vital that any victims have a voice and are able to report any allegations if they have not done so before, and know that they will be taken seriously. We have specialist teams to ensure all those victims who make contact with us are supported in the best way possible.
'I understand that for many years many people have sought answers in relation to this case. We will do everything possible to update on our progress when we can, but it is crucial we do this thoroughly and we do it right.'
Victims of Al Fayed have been asked to call the Met's Complex Investigation Team on 020 8217 6582 or 6586 between 8am and 6pm Monday to Sunday, or call 101 at any time and quote CAD1920/26Sep, or email [email protected]

Papst Franziskus hat erneut einen Rückfall erlitten. Am Montag habe es zwei Episoden akuter Atemnot bei dem erkrankten 88-jährigen Kirchenoberhaupt gegeben, wie der Vatikan am Montagabend mitteilte. Verursacht worden seien sie durch eine starke Ansammlung von endobronchialem Schleim - verursacht durch seine beidseitige Lungenentzündung - und einer daraus resultierenden Verkrampfung der Atemwege. Beide Male hätte viel Sekret von den Bronchien abgesaugt werden müssen.
Papst seit Februar im Krankenhaus
Zudem sei Franziskus wieder mechanisch beatmet worden. Mit einer Prognose über den weiteren Verlauf hielten sich die Ärzte zurück. Zugleich wurde aber betont: "Der Heilige Vater blieb zu jeder Zeit wach, orientiert und kooperativ." Am Freitag war es zuletzt so einem solchen Bronchospasmus gekommen, bei dem Franziskus an seinem eigenen Erbrochenen hätte ersticken können.
Das Oberhaupt von weltweit 1,4 Milliarden Katholiken wird seit Mitte Februar im Gemelli-Krankenhaus von Rom behandelt. Er leidet an einer beidseitigen Lungenentzündung.
Dramatische Botschaft des Papstes zu weltweiten Krisen
Im Vatikan hatte am Montagmorgen eine Versammlung der Päpstlichen Akademie für das Leben begonnen. Sie steht unter dem Motto: "Das Ende der Welt? Krisen, Verantwortlichkeiten, Hoffnungen". Der Papst sandte aus der Klinik eine streckenweise dramatische Grußbotschaft an die Teilnehmer, die der Vatikan am Vormittag veröffentlichte. Darin betont Franziskus, die derzeitige Weltlage sei durch eine "Polykrise" gekennzeichnet. Dazu trügen in dieser dramatischen historischen Stunde Kriege, Klimawandel, Energieprobleme, Epidemien, Migrationsströme und technische Neuerungen bei.
Mit Nachdruck wandte sich der Papst gegen eine "utilitaristische und neo-libertäre Deregulierung", die derzeit weltweit im Gang sei. Sie wolle das Gesetz des Stärkeren als einzige Regel durchsetzen; das sei unmenschlich. Stattdessen müssten jene Instrumente gestärkt werden, die den gesamten Planeten im Blick haben.

No food, no water, no power: Israel’s ‘hell plan’ to force Hamas to extend hostage deal

Israel intends to impose a “hell plan” on Gaza this week to force an agreement on the extension of the ceasefire, sources have said.
It could involve cutting off electricity and water, as well as potential efforts to again displace the civilian population from the north of the enclave, and comes after Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision on Sunday to halt humanitarian supplies.
Government sources have briefed journalists that they hope this will force Hamas to look again at a US proposal to extend the current ceasefire until after the period of Ramadan and Passover.
If the terror group refused, the ratcheting measures would lead to a resumption of all-out war in the Gaza Strip, government officials said.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have already stepped up strikes on alleged suspicious activity in Gaza in recent days.
The 42-day first phase of the hostage-ceasefire deal ended at the weekend, with no agreement in place for what happens next.
Under the original agreement, phase one would give way to phase two, which should involve the return of all living and dead hostages, further releases of Palestinian prisoners, the complete withdrawal of the IDF from Gaza and serious discussions about the enclave’s political future.
Israel has been reluctant to contemplate the latter two points, instead backing a proposal by Steve Witkoff, the US Middle East envoy, of releasing half the remaining hostages on the first day of a Ramadan-Passover extension, with the remaining half released at the end, providing that an agreement about Gaza’s future had been reached.
Hamas has rejected the plan and called for phase two to go ahead as originally outlined.
Aid agencies have sounded alarm at the decision to halt aid convoys.
Amjad Al Shawa, the director of the Palestinian NGOs Network, said: “This decision to prevent the entry of food, medicine, fuel and other shelter items – which people [are] in bad need [of] – while we are engaged on such a humanitarian response, will complicate our efforts to alleviate the suffering.”
However, Israel said on Monday that Hamas had “enough food to fuel an obesity epidemic” for its fighters.
Ariel Kellner, a Knesset member from Mr Netanyahu’s Likud party, said: “Without this aid, they can continue to live for a very long time.
“Shutting down aid in a real way would be shutting off the electricity and water and fuel. If that doesn’t work, we will use force.”
Attacks in Israel
Israel is reeling from what appeared to be a terror attack on its transport network, with one person killed and at least four wounded in a stabbing spree in Haifa on Monday.
The man who died was in his 60s and was stabbed several times in the back, while a 15-year-old boy was taken to hospital for emergency surgery.
It came after a ramming attack at a bus stop on Thursday and a series of botched bus bombings in Tel Aviv two weeks ago.
There is growing discomfort on the Israeli Right that Hamas has used the ceasefire and the dying weeks of the Biden administration, when Israel was forced to allow through more aid, to build up its supplies and infrastructure.
The decision by Mr Netanyahu’s security cabinet has been welcomed by many commentators, who also say that cutting off electricity – in particular to Gaza’s desalination plant – plus the intermittent closure of water would put the enclave into a stranglehold. Stopping the inflow of bulldozers and mobile structures has also been called for.
Ramadan, the month-long fasting festival, is seen as a provocative time to impose restrictions on the Muslim-dominated region.
However, Israeli government sources said that they believe Hamas currently has no appetite for a return to war.
On Monday, it was reported that an Arab diplomat from one of the main countries involved in the negotiations said that, behind the scenes, the terror group appeared willing to be more flexible.
Other sources have suggested the group might accept a two-week extension before insisting on phase two of the ceasefire beginning.
Arab countries are reportedly nearing an agreement on an alternative plan for Gaza to that of Donald Trump, the US president, who wants to remove the enclave’s population and turn it into a resort.
The Arab scheme would sideline Hamas and replace it with interim bodies controlled by both Arab, Muslim and Western states, it has been reported.
Reuters reported that an Egyptian-led vision for Gaza will be presented at an Arab League summit on Tuesday.
Hamas has previously rejected any idea of a future for the enclave being imposed on Palestinians by outside states.

J.D. Vance wurde vom Trump-Kritiker zu dessen Vizekandidaten. Manche sehen darin Verrat. Sie offenbaren ein Missverständnis über Haltung und Herkunft.
Es gibt ein Auto, das auffällt in meinem Westberliner Kiez. Es ist vollgeklebt mit Stickern des Ostberliner Fußball-Bundesligisten Union Berlin. Was macht der denn hier?!, denke ich, wenn ich wieder daran vorbeigehe. Ausgerechnet hier, in der historischen Heimat des Stadtrivalen Hertha BSC! Wie kann man im Wedding wohnen und Unioner sein?!
Das ist natürlich Bullshit, sehe ich ein, wenn ich ein paar Meter weiter am Bolzplatz vorbeigehe, wo Kinder in Trikots von Real Madrid und Manchester City zocken. Von der Herkunft oder dem Wohnort einer Person auf ihren favorisierten Club zu schließen, ergibt doch gerade im hyperglobalisierten Fußball keinen Sinn, erklärt mir mein Besserwisser-Ich ganz nüchtern. Der emotionale Fußballromantiker in mir fühlt sich mal wieder belehrt. Aber er weiß: Der Klugscheißer hat recht.
Ähnlich verhält es sich im Politischen. Auch hier geht es neben Inhalten immer auch um Identität, Herkunft, Bindungen. Aber auch hier ist es hoffnungslos romantisch, von der Herkunft einer Person auf ihre politischen Präferenzen zu schließen.
Dass das keine banale Feststellung ist, zeigte die Verwunderung, mit der zuletzt über J. D. Vance, den Vizekandidaten von Donald Trump, geschrieben wurde. Bekannt wurde Vance mit „Hillbilly Elegie“, seinem autobiografischem Buch über die Armut in seiner Heimat Ohio und seinen Weg vom Kind einer Heroinabhängigen zum Studenten der Elite-Universität Yale. Früher kritisierte Vance Trump scharf – dann wurde er zu seinem politischen Weggefährten.
Vulgär und ohne Sinn für Aufrichtigkeit
Darin erkennen einige nun Verrat. Die FAZ bezeichnet Vance als „Konvertit“; eine Spiegel-Autorin verabschiedet sich „gefühlt“ von einem „ehemaligen Verbündeten“, der heute ein „Handlanger“ Trumps ist; „Vance wurde ein anderer Vance als der, den er den Amerikanern im Buch präsentiert hatte“, findet Zeit Online oder gar, er sei „vor Trump zu Kreuze gekrochen“. Auch in der taz heißt es, man benötige „für diese außergewöhnliche Karriere“ eine „opportunistische Ader, die über das übliche Maß hinausgeht“.
Viele der Einordnungen lesen sich so, als wäre Vance ein Willenloser ohne eigene Meinung, der anders als andere Politiker den Versuchungen des Opportunismus erlegen ist – obwohl jede erfolgreiche Karriere in der Politik doch eine ordentliche Portion Opportunismus erfordert. Als wäre Vance eben immer noch der dumme, vulgäre Proletenjunge, der keinen Sinn für Aufrichtigkeit hat – schon gar nicht, wenn er sich einen persönlichen Vorteil davon verspricht: Erst kommt das Fressen, dann kommt die Moral!
Mehr als an den menschenfeindlichen Inhalten, die Vance verbreitet, scheinen sich die Kommentierenden an dem Umstand zu stören, dass jener sich anders verhält, als sie es von ihm erwarten: Einer wie Vance, der aus armen Verhältnissen kommt, muss doch links sein! Genauso wie ein Mensch mit Migrationshintergrund doch Antirassist sein muss und eine Frau immer eine Feministin!
Am Ende liegt hier vielleicht die entscheidendste Parallele zum Fußball, sagt mir mein Besserwisser-Ich, dieser nervige Klugscheißer: Nicht irgendeine romantische Vorstellung von Herkunft und schon gar nicht, was richtig oder falsch ist, entscheidet über den Erfolg. Sondern am Ende das Geld und die Macht. Sonst würden die Kinder auf dem Bolzplatz ja auch Trikots von Hertha tragen, diesem Dauerkrisenclub, der immer noch in der zweiten Liga herumdümpelt.

LONDON, Jan 18 — Enzo Maresca said yesterday managing Chelsea during the January transfer window has been a “disaster”, with players unsettled because of speculation linking them with moves away from the London club.
Maresca’s side have dropped out of the top four in the Premier League after failing to win any of their past five games.
A number of players have been linked with moves away from Stamford Bridge.
Defender Renato Veiga was reported to be in discussions with Borussia Dortmund this week while Maresca has also faced questions on the future of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
Bayern Munich have reportedly made an inquiry about Christopher Nkunku and Tosin Adarabioyo has been linked with a move to Brighton.
Ben Chilwell, Carney Chukwuem and Cesare Casadei have all been told they can leave.
“On the pitch, for sure I would like to win more games, but I’m OK,” said Maresca, whose team have not won in the league since Dec 15.
“Off the pitch it’s a disaster because of so many noises that I don’t think help us, but I don’t think they help any club,” Maresca told a press conference ahead of Monday’s match at home to strugglers Wolves.
“It’s for every club, every manager. When there is any noise about some player, it’s not easy, because even if you think the player can be focused on us, in the end it’s a human being. So if there is any noise about some different club, probably he is not focused 100 percent, so it doesn’t help. But we need to adapt.”
Chelsea have fallen 10 points behind leaders Liverpool but Maresca said he was happy with his teamvs performances.
“On the pitch, we’re in a business where we all judge results,” he said. “But if we judge the performances of the team, I’m happy. We create, we play.
“The performances are there (but) sometimes you don’t win games.”
Top-scorer Cole Palmer is a doubt for the Wolves game, as are Levi Colwill, Romeo Lavia and Enzo Fernandez, after all four players suffered injuries during Tuesday’s 2-2 draw with Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge. — AFP

Stock market today: Asian stocks mixed with volatile yen after Wall Street rises on inflation report

Asian stocks were mixed Friday, with the Japanese yen losing some of its gains after the latest U.S. update on inflation bolstered Wall Street’s belief that relief on interest rates may come as soon as September.
U.S. futures and oil prices rose.
The U.S. dollar lost 2.1% against the yen overnight and traded as low as 157.43 yen, fueling speculation that Japanese authorities may have intervened to amplify the impact of the milder U.S. inflation data. It regained some of its losses on Friday, rising to 159.19 yen from 158.80 yen.
Tokyo’s Nikkei 225 index lost 2.5% to 41,190.68.
Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index climbed 2.4% to 18,260.91 and the Shanghai Composite index rose less than 0.1% to 2,971.81 after data showed that China’s exports increased by 8.6% in June, better than market expectations.
Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 was up 0.9% at 7,959.30. South Korea’s Kospi slipped 1.4% to 2,851.96.
Elsewhere, Bangkok’s SET edged 0.2% higher. Taiwan’s Taiex declined 2%, with Taiwan Semiconductor losing 1.9%. The company earlier rose after announcing that its revenue climbed nearly 33% in June compared with the same period last year, but followed Wall Street tech giants lower.
On Wall Street overnight, four out of every five stocks in the S&P 500 index climbed, though pullbacks for Nvidia, Microsoft and a handful of other highly influential companies masked that underlying strength. Those giants have been the market’s biggest winners amid a frenzy around artificial-intelligence technology, causing critics to say they had become too pricey, and they helped drag the S&P 500 down 0.9% from its all-time high set a day before.
The drops for Big Tech stocks also pulled the Nasdaq composite down 2% from its own record. The drops broke seven-day winning streaks for both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq composite. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, which has less of an emphasis on tech, rose 32 points, or 0.1%.
The direction was decidedly upward for the majority of stocks on Wall Street, particularly housing-related companies, real-estate owners and others that benefit from easier interest rates. SBA Communications, which owns towers and other sites used for wireless communications infrastructure, jumped 7.5% for the biggest gain in the S&P 500.
The day’s action was even stronger in the bond market, where yields tumbled as traders built bets for the Federal Reserve to soon begin lowering its main interest rate. It’s been sitting for nearly a year at its highest level in more than two decades.
Wall Street wants lower interest rates to release pressure that’s built up on the economy because of how expensive it’s become to borrow money to buy houses, cars or anything on credit cards. Fed officials, though, have been saying they want to see “more good data” on inflation before making a move.
Wall Street saw Thursday’s report, which showed milder price increases than expected from a year earlier for gasoline, cars and other things U.S. consumers bought during June, as providing just that.
Following the report’s release, Treasury yields tumbled immediately. The yield on the 10-year Treasury dropped to 4.20% from 4.28% late Wednesday and from 4.70% in April. That’s a major move for the bond market and provides a big lift for stock prices.
All told, the S&P 500 fell 0.9% to 5,584.54. The Dow rose 0.1% to 39,753.75, and the Nasdaq composite dropped 2% to 18,283.41.
In other dealings, U.S. benchmark crude oil gained 57 cents to $83.19 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Brent crude, the international standard, picked up 43 cents to $85.83 per barrel.
The euro rose to $1.0866 from $1.0865.

De categoría 5, se convierte en el ciclón más fuerte de la historia en el Atlántico en esta época del año
Al menos siete personas han fallecido en la región del Caribe por el paso del huracán Beryl, que el día anterior alcanzó la categoría 5 -potencialmente catastrófico-, convirtiéndose en el huracán más fuerte de la historia del Atlántico en el mes de junio, y que llegará a las costas de Jamaica este miércoles por la mañana.
El presidente de Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, ha confirmado al menos tres muertos en el estado costero de Sucre, según ha informado el diario venezolano Efecto Coyuco, la misma zona en la que la vicepresidenta del país, Delcy Rodríguez, ha resultado herida tras haber sido golpeada por la caída de un árbol.
Tres fallecidos en Venezuela, tres en Granada y uno en San Vicente y las Granadinas
Por su parte, el primer ministro de Granada, Dickon Mitchell, ha confirmado tres fallecidos después de que el huracán pasase por la isla de Carriacou y Pequeña Martinica el lunes, cuando Beryl era todavía un fenómeno de nivel 4. La tormenta ha provocado deslizamientos de tierra, la destrucción de casas y numerosos cortes tanto de energía como de las líneas de comunicación.
A este balance se suma el fallecido confirmado el día anterior por el primer ministro de San Vicente y las Granadinas, Ralph Gonsalves, quien además informó de que el 90 por ciento de las casas de la isla de Union Island han quedado dañadas o destruidas.
Por su parte, el primer ministro de Jamaica, Andrew Holness, ha lanzado una advertencia sobre la inminente llegada del huracán a la isla a lo largo de la mañana del miércoles con unas rachas de vientos de hasta 240 kilómetros por hora, lo que provocará olas de entre dos y tres metros de altura.
El portavoz del secretario general de la ONU, Stéphane Dujarric, ha informado de que siete agencias de Naciones Unidas en la región van a ser reforzadas en los próximos días por equipos adicionales del organismo. Además, ha mostrado su preocupación por la situación en Haití debido a que el huracán se encuentra cerca de la zona sur de la isla como paso previo a su acercamiento a Jamaica. “La situación en Haití para nosotros es extremadamente preocupante. El país antes del huracán ya estaba en una situación calamitosa. La situación de seguridad no está mejorando. Nos estamos preposicionando, estamos listos para ayudar en cuanto llegue la tormenta y antes”, ha añadido durante una rueda de prensa.
Beryl, que ha alcanzado la categoría 5 a lo largo de la jornada del lunes, según el Centro Nacional de Huracanes de Estados Unidos, es el huracán de esta envergadura más tempranero desde 1966 y el primero de la temporada atlántica del 2024. Las ráfagas de viento han alcanzado los 270 kilómetros por hora.

LONDON, Jan 18 — Tony Mowbray was named as coach of English second-tier side West Brom for the second time yesterday and handed the mission of steering the club back to the Premier League.
Mowbray, 61, replaces Carlos Corberan who left the club to take charge of Spanish La Liga outfit Valencia in December.
West Brom currently sit seventh in the Championship, just one point off the play-off places.
Mowbray took West Brom to the Championship title in 2008 and spent three years at the Midlands club until 2009.
Since leaving, he has managed Celtic, Middlesbrough, Coventry, Blackburn, Sunderland and Birmingham.
“Tony has a wealth of experience across British football and shares our vision for the football club,” West Brom chairman Shilen Patel said.
“I’m thrilled he is our new head coach and we are excited to welcome him back to write a new chapter in his Baggies story with his unwavering desire to compete and win.” — AFP

Pope Francis suffered two respiratory attacks on Monday, more than two weeks into a hospital stay for pneumonia.
Doctors had to intervene to extract a large build-up of mucus from the lungs of the 88 year-old, who is battling double pneumonia in the Gemelli Hospital in Rome.
“Today, the Holy Father experienced two episodes of acute respiratory failure, caused by a significant accumulation of endobronchial mucus and consequent bronchospasm,” the Vatican said in a statement released on Monday evening.
The medical team looking after him intervened to aspirate. The Pope, who has been in hospital since Feb 14, was put back on non-invasive mechanical ventilation, the Vatican said.
Despite the acute breathing difficulties, the Pope remained alert and co-operated fully with doctors, the Holy See said. His prognosis remains guarded.
The latest respiratory crisis appeared to be another significant setback in the Pope’s attempts to recover from bronchitis and pneumonia in both lungs.
He has not been seen in public since being admitted to hospital more than two weeks ago. Nor has the Vatican released any photographs or video of him.
Although he has been taken to hospital in the past, this is the longest absence from public life during his 12-year-long papacy and there is speculation that he might resign or that the end of his life is approaching.
The Vatican insisted the Pope working and making decisions, despite the range of medical problems that confront him. He has taken to signing off official documents with the words “From Gemelli Polyclinic”, the Rome hospital which has cared for a succession of ailing pontiffs.
But medical experts said the latest breathing attacks were a worrying sign.
“The situation continues to be critical,” said Fabrizio Pregliasco, a leading Italian virologist who rose to prominence during the Covid-19 pandemic.
“It is clear that if things don’t improve, one possibility would be the necessity of intubation. But we just have to wait to see whether the antibiotic treatment works.”
Senior Vatican figures have lamented the fact that the Pope was ill at a time when the world needed his voice of moderation on conflicts such as Ukraine and Gaza.
“Pope Francis’s voice is of vital importance for all the world because he’s the only authority who speaks of peace, who condemns war, all the wars under way starting with Ukraine,” said Archbishop Georg Gaenswein, the Vatican’s ambassador to Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia.
“I’m praying for the Holy Father every day. Like millions of people are doing around the world, I pray that he gets better very soon,” he told La Repubblica newspaper.
Archbishop Gaenswein was for many years personal secretary to Pope Benedict XVI. He was exiled to the Baltics after he published a memoir in 2023 that was critical of Pope Francis.

Walkers unveil ‘sandwich-flavour’ crisps – and cheese toasties are on the menu

Walkers have released three limited-edition ‘sandwich-inspired’ crisp flavours, and they’re available to buy now. Teaming up with sauce giant Heinz, the new flavours are designed to divide.
First up is the cheese toastie, promising to bring together the taste of classic cheddar and Heinz beans. Next is a mixture of roast chicken and mayo, and finally there’s the sausage sarnie, complete with Heinz ketchup.
The unusual flavours come alongside a new campaign from the brands, where they ask customers whether they’re ‘CrispIN’ or ‘CrispOUT.’ That is, do crisps belong on a sandwich or not?
The collaboration has divided customers online. Responding to the announcement on Instagram, one user wrote: “Love these! Bean and cheese toasties are the best!!”
Others were less impressed, with another user remarking: “Now who asked for these flavours? just bring back Worcester sauce flavour.”
The new flavours are available in supermarkets across the UK from, with 45g grab bags for £1 and multipacks of five for £1.65. Retailers include Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Co-op, Iceland, Aldi, B&M, Farmfoods, TJs, and Poundland.
Walkers has not confirmed how long the limited edition flavours will stay on shelves, so those who are considering themselves intrigued may want to act fast.
It’s far from the first time the household crisp brand has launched a divisive campaign. For Christmas 2019, Walkers divided the nation with a limited-edition ‘Brussels Sprout’ flavour. A few years before, it was the ‘Cheese, Cucumber & Salad Cream’ flavour. This was another collaboration with Heinz that, no doubt, many will be unhappy to see missed from the new roster.
The move comes after Walkers introduced new flavours to their Monster Munch range in June. These were BBQ sauce, cheese toastie, and crispy bacon. These products promised to be healthier than the regular flavours, using a new recipe that is ‘non-HFSS,’ meaning they are lower in salt, fat, and sugar.

Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Geburtstag, Niedersachsenstadion! Heute feiert die Heimstätte des Fußball-Zweitligisten Hannover 96 ihr 70-jähriges Bestehen. Die Arena am Maschsee, das Volksparkstadion des HSV oder auch das Ostseestadion von Hansa Rostock, der NDR zeigt norddeutsche Stadien im Wandel der Zeit.
Es war der 26. September 1954 - da wurde mitten in Hannover nach zwei Jahren Bauzeit das Niedersachsenstadion eröffnet. Gebaut worden war es zum Teil auf Schutt und Trümmern aus dem Zweiten Weltkrieg. Damals war die Arena mit über 80.000 Plätzen eines der größten Stadien in Deutschland. Man könnte sagen: Einem deutschen Meister würdig! Denn diesen Titel hatten die "Roten" kurz davor errungen.
Stadion und Arena von Hannover 96
Bei der feierlichen Eröffnung des Stadions gab es auf der Laufbahn einen Staffelwettbewerb. Im Rahmen eines großen Sportfestes wurde aber auch Rugby gespielt, zudem gab es Bodenturnen und Gymnastik. Und es wurde Fußball gespielt: Hannover 96 wurde im Stadtduell mit der Arminia seiner Favoritenrolle gerecht und siegte durch einen Treffer von Meisterspieler Hans, genannt Hannes, Tkotz mit 1:0.
Seitdem ist im Stadion viel passiert. Durch den Umbau anlässlich der WM 1974 zugunsten von Sitzplätzen verringerte sich das Fassungsvermögen zunächst auf 60.400 Plätze. 2002/2003 kam es zu einem erneuten Umbau. Das Stadion wurde etwa zu 70 Prozent abgerissen und anschließend zu einer reinen Fußball-Arena umgebaut. Heute verfügt sie über 49.200 Plätze - und trägt schon seit 2002 nicht mehr seinen ursprünglichen Namen.
Volksparkstadion des HSV
Auch das Volksparkstadion des Zweitligisten Hamburger SV hat mittlerweile einige Namensänderungen hinter sich. Seinen ursprünglichen Namen trägt die Arena, die zwischen 1998 und 2000 zu einem reinen Fußball-Stadion umgebaut und erstmals umbenannt worden ist, heute auch nur, weil Investor Klaus-Michael Kühne die Namensrechte erworben hat.
Das Fassungsvermögen des Volksparkstadions übertraf bei seiner Gründung doch um einiges das heutige. 1953 war es mit 76.000 Plätzen (kurz) das größte Stadion der Bundesrepublik. Heute verfügt die Spielstätte des HSV über 57.000 Plätze. Zur EM 2024 wurde das Stadion nach den Vorgaben der UEFA noch einmal in einigen Punkten modifiziert.
Weserstadion von Werder Bremen
Seit 1930 trägt Werder Bremen seine Spiele im Weserstadion aus, das damals auch diesen Namen erhielt. Nach verschiedenen Umbauten wurde das Stadion zuletzt von 2008 bis 2011 aus- und umgebaut sowie modernisiert. Die Spielstätte des Bundesligisten hat heute eine Kapazität von 42.100 Zuschauern.
Millerntor-Stadion des FC St. Pauli
Eingeweiht wurde das Millerntor-Stadion des heutigen Bundesligisten FC St. Pauli im Jahr 1963 - im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen Stadien im Profifußball liegt es zentral in der Stadt. Das einstige Fassungsvermögen von 32.000 Zuschauern wurde aus Sicherheitsgründen im Laufe der Jahre immer wieder verringert, bis auf 19.800 Plätze. 2006 begann der Umbau, der sich über den Zeitraum von neun Jahren erstreckte. Nach und nach wurden die Tribünen erneuert. Das Stadion hat nun 29.546 Plätze.
Ostseestadion von Hansa Rostock
Am Bau des Ostseestadions Anfang der 1950er-Jahre halfen tausende Menschen mit. Dank mehr als 230.000 freiwillig geleisteter Arbeitsstunden konnten Einsparungen von knapp 930.000 DDR-Mark erzielt werden. Am 27. Juni 1954 wurde das seinerzeit 18.000 Plätze bietende Stadion eingeweiht. Von Februar 2000 an wurde es innerhalb von 16 Monaten schrittweise zu einer reinen Fußball-Arena umgebaut. Heute hat die Spielstätte des Zweitligisten Hansa Rostock eine Kapazität von 29.000 Plätzen.
Spielstätten des VfL Wolfsburg
Das Stadion am Elsterweg mit seiner Laufbahn um das Spielfeld herum war bis 2002 die Spielstätte des VfL Wolfsburg. Schon Ende 1997, wenige Monate nach dem Aufstieg in die Bundesliga, war die Errichtung einer neuen Arena ins Gespräch gekommen. Vier Jahre später begannen die Bauarbeiten, die offizielle Eröffnung fand am 13. Dezember 2002 statt. Die Arena hat eine Kapazität von 30.000 Plätzen.
Das Eintracht-Stadion in Braunschweig
Älter als die ganzen Vorgänger ist das Stadion von Eintracht Braunschweig. Das Eintracht-Stadion feierte am 17. Juni 2023 bereits seinen 100. Geburtstag - und hat viele große, aber auch sehr bittere Momente erlebt. So wie im ersten Spiel 1923, als Braunschweig mit 1:10 gegen den damaligen Spitzenverein 1. FC Nürnberg verlor. Viel lieber erinnern sich die "Löwen" zum Beispiel an den größten Erfolg der Vereinsgeschichte, den sensationellen Gewinn der deutschen Meisterschaft 1967. Insgesamt stieg der BTSV viermal aus der Bundesliga und sechsmal aus der Zweiten Liga ab. Seit 2022 gehören die Braunschweiger wieder der zweithöchsten deutschen Liga an.
Das Eintracht-Stadion wurde Mitte der 1990er-Jahre und noch ein weiteres Mal 2009/2010 erheblich modernisiert. 23.325 Fans bietet es nun bei Fußballspielen der Blau-Gelben Platz.

El cansancio extremo está provocado por los cambios en el organismo de la embarazada

El cansancio extremo está provocado por los cambios en el organismo de la embarazada
¿Pensando en quedarte embarazada? Esto es lo que deberías saber primero
Durante las primeras semanas de gestación, el cuerpo de la mujer experimenta toda una serie de cambios y síntomas. Los cambios de humor, los dolores de cabeza, el aumento o pérdida de peso, las náuseas y los vómitos, la sensibilidad en los pechos o la lumbalgia representan tan solo algunos de ellos, según apuntan los especialistas de UNICEF. Aunque uno de los que suelen resultar más notorios es la fatiga extrema. En el primer trimestre del embarazo es especialmente necesario dormir y descansar más, dado que el cuerpo está atravesando un proceso en el que la acción de las hormonas y el resto de síntomas no hacen más que acusar ese cansancio. De hecho, en la semana 5 de embarazo, la hormona del embarazo Beta HCG aumenta sus niveles, lo que se traduce en una mayor fatiga.
Esas ganas de dormir a todas horas es algo muy común en las embarazadas durante el primer trimestre, explica el ginecólogo Luis Cruzat. “Se está creando una vida dentro de otra vida, por lo tanto, el organismo se adapta para que el bebé pueda desarrollarse”, añade el especialista. Esto supone una mayor producción de sangre para que el oxígeno y los nutrientes lleguen al feto, además de una mayor exigencia para el corazón y el sistema respiratorio. Todo ello afecta y provoca que la fatiga sea más notoria. Un síntoma “inevitable”, pero que puede tratar de aliviarse por medio de ciertos hábitos, que ayudarán a disminuir ese cansancio y hacer que las embarazadas se sientan más activas y enérgicas.
¿Cómo reducir el cansancio durante el primer trimestre de embarazo?
Las embarazadas notarán un gran cansancio durante el primer trimestre de gestación, ya que se trata de uno de los principales síntomas. No obstante, Elisa García, especialista en Obstetricia y Ginecología, comparte en Natalben una serie de consejos para ayudar a aliviar esa fatiga tan característica. Uno de los más importantes tiene que ver con mantener una alimentación saludable, que sea de calidad y nutritiva. La ginecóloga recomienda una dieta rica en hierro, nutrientes esenciales y vitaminas, así como evitar los azúcares refinados, los alimentos procesados y las grasas.
Por otra parte, conviene incluir el ejercicio regular en el estilo de vida. “Puede parecerte una contradicción que recomendemos ejercicio físico para disminuir el cansancio, pero no lo es”, asegura Elisa García. Esto se debe a que la actividad física promueve el correcto funcionamiento del organismo y mejora la calidad del sueño. El pilates, el yoga, la natación o caminar representan excelentes opciones.
Una buena higiene del sueño también resultará fundamental durante el primer trimestre del embarazo, ya que será clave dormir las horas necesarias y mantener una rutina estable. Pero, sobre todo, la ginecóloga recomienda evitar el estrés, “tanto físico como emocional”, y no exigirse más de lo habitual.

There's a new royal event of the summer, no it's not Wimbledon or Ascot, or anything with royal in the title, it's a gig with 90,000 people in north west London, Taylor Swift's Eras Tour.
The Bad Blood singer, 34, kickstarted her London tour dates over the weekend with three sellout shows at Wembley. She'll return for five more dates in August.
And members of the public weren't the only ones filling the arena with arms full of friendship bracelets and glitter across their faces, but also European royalty.
The Prince of Wales was spotted quite literally shaking it off as he watched the singer perform live, before gathering Prince George and Princess Charlotte backstage for a selfie with Taylor and Travis Kelce.
Meanwhile, Zara and Mike Tindall watched alongside close pals Natalie Pinkham and Holly Branson, and Princess Beatrice's husband, Edo Mapelli Mozzi was also in attendance, not to mention Greek royalty.
Taking to Instagram, television presenter Natalie Pinkham shared snaps of Zara and Mike Tindall at the event, along with Richard Branson's daughter - Holly, 42.
The royal couple put on a romantic display and held hands as they strolled into the London arena.
Princess Anne's daughter, 43, donned denim mini shorts and a sparkling glitter jacket as she posed for a photograph at the concert.
Meanwhile, former rugby union star Mike Tindall, 45, sported pink attire and a t-shirt referencing the singer's much-loved song - You Need to Calm Down.
The 45-year-old later put on a sweet display as he hugged Natalie's daughter, Willow, at the event.
At the same event, Prince William delighted fans with his gleeful 'dad dancing'. Footage emerged of exuberant William breaking out his best 'dad dancing' as the singer performed her 2014 hit single Shake It Off.
The US pop star then posed for a selfie with the Prince of Wales as well as two of his children Princess George and Princess Charlotte at the Wembley Stadium show, along with the singer's boyfriend Travis Kelce.
While William's youngest child Prince Louis remained at home with his wife Kate, he was accompanied by George and Charlotte in the 90,000-strong crowd.
The Prince and Princess of Wales's official X account posted an adorable photo William, George and Charlotte with Swift - with the caption: 'Thank you Taylor Swift for a great evening!'
Soon after, the popstar posted a selfie with the royals and her boyfriend Kelce to say: 'Happy birthday M8! London shows are off to a splendid start' in a touching message to the heir for his 42nd birthday.
However, an insider has claimed that the royals' journey into Wembley wasn't smooth-sailing - and there was a 'panic' about their timings.
They told HELLO!: 'They had a nightmare getting in, they were running really late but they had planned to get there earlier so they could have the meet and greet with Taylor beforehand because they knew they wanted to leave early.
'They only had 25 minutes to spare so had a quick meet and greet and then went up to their box before the show, and there was a bit of stress and panic about that because it was taking too long.'
The insider also claims Prince William and his children tried to stay towards the back of the box so not to draw too much attention to themselves during the performance.
Elsewhere, Edo Mapelli Mozzi also proved himself to be Swifite. Edo shared a photo from Taylor Swift's concert in Wembley on Saturday night - with his wife Princess Beatrice likely in tow.
Property developer Edo, 40, took to his Instagram to share an atmospheric snap of the crowd from the gig that has been this weekend's hottest ticket.
However, it's not just Britain's royals that have enjoyed the US star's sell out shows in London, but also the Greek royal family.
Crown Princess of Greece Marie Chantal shared a snap of her family outside the event on Sunday with the caption: 'Swifites'.
Meanwhile, rumours swirled that the daughters of King Felipe and Queen Letizia of Spain attended the show in London.
It is thought that Princess Leonor and her younger sister Princess Sofia attended Taylor's Wembley show over the weekend.
Princess Olympia of Greece looked in high spirits as she danced the night away at the Taylor Swift Eras Tour concert.
The socialite, 27, was filmed at Wembley Stadium in north London jamming to the global superstar's London concert with her pals.
Olympia, daughter of Crown Princess Marie-Chantal and Crown Prince Pavlos of Greece, got into the Swiftie spirit by waving her hands in the air and singing along to Blank Space, part of her 1989 album.
She donned blue skinny jeans and a tan-coloured long sleeved top which she paired with a black and silver cowboy hat.
It's thought that the Princess chose this headwear to match Taylor's 2008 country album, Fearless, where she sings about love and heartbreak.
Olympia wore her signature short blonde tresses down in a straight blow-dry and donned bright red lipstick, Taylor's signature shade.
She could be seen smiling and singing the lyrics to the camera: 'I can read you like a magazine. Ain't it funny rumours fly and I know you heard about me so hey let's be friends.'

Zwei Tage vor dem Duell mit Union Berlin hat Gerardo Seoane gesagt, was nötig ist, um den zweiten Saisonsieg einzufahren. Verzichten muss Borussias Trainer unter anderem auf Franck Honorat. Wer ihn vertreten könnte und was Seoane zum Torwart-Zweikampf zu sagen hatte.
Einige Minuten nach dem Ende der Pressekonferenz machte sich Gladbachs Franck Honorat am Donnerstag auf dem Heimweg. Mit dem Gehen hatte der Franzose offenbar keine Probleme, seine Wadenverletzung macht einen Einsatz am Wochenende gegen Union Berlin (Samstag, 15.30 Uhr) aber nicht möglich.
„Wir haben bei Franck noch Kontroll-MRT’s gemacht, weil sich die Situation nicht gebessert hat. Er hat einen kleinen Muskelfaserriss im Bereich der Wade und ist am Samstag nicht dabei“, verkündete Seoane, der bereits beim 0:2 in Frankfurt auf den Offensivspieler verzichten musste. Auch für das Augsburg-Spiel werde es mit einem Einsatz Honorats womöglich knapp, dafür stehen Seoane mit Ausnahme der Langzeitverletzten Jonas Omlin, Jan Olschowsky und Yvandro Borges Sanches alle Profis zur Verfügung.
Die Vertragslaufzeiten der Borussia-Profis im Überblick
Wie erwartet wird der verletzte Omlin erneut von Moritz Nicolas vertreten, der einst 2020 als Leihspieler für Union in der Bundesliga debütierte. Nun wird er zum 33. Mal in einem Pflichtspiel für Gladbach zwischen den Pfosten stehen. „Mo hat sich immer auf Spannung gehalten und Jonas gut unterstützt. Jetzt ist seine Zeit gekommen, das Tor zu hüten. Jonas unterstützt ihn als guten Teamplayer. Weiter voraus werden wir mit Sicherheit jetzt nicht schauen. Wichtig ist immer der Erfolg der Mannschaft“, antwortete Seoane auf die Frage, ob sich Nicolas nun mit guten Leistungen für einen Stammplatz empfehlen könne.
Ohnehin beschäftige ihn die Frage nach der Nummer eins nicht so sehr. „Wir wussten, dass das leistungsmäßig auf Augenhöhe ist. Von daher ist die Frage, wer im Tor steht, für mich als Coach kein Problem, sondern eine Luxussituation. Wir hoffen, dass Mo gesund bleibt und seine Leistung abruft“, sagte Seoane.
Während die Plätze in der Startelf vor allem in der Defensive vergeben sein dürften und sich dort lediglich die Frage stellt, ob Rocco Reitz oder Philipp Sander beginnt, gibt es in der Offensive mehrere Varianten. Alassane Plea, Robin Hack, Nathan Ngoumou und Tomas Cvancara kämpfen um die beiden Plätze neben Kevin Stöger und Tim Kleindienst. Hack und Ngoumou erhielten in Frankfurt den Vorzug, Plea und Cvancara kamen in der Schlussphase aufs Feld.
Seoane und Gladbach warten seit Monaten auf einen Heimsieg
„Wir haben Spieler, die variabel einsetzbar sind – am Flügel und in den Zwischenräumen. Wir werden alle Spieler brauchen. Die Frage ist: Wer startet und wer kommt vielleicht während des Spiels rein? Ich werde keine Hinweise darauf geben“, sagte Seoane und hielt sich damit bedeckt. „Insgesamt war ich bisher mit den Spielern zufrieden, Tomas Cvancara ist der einzige, der noch nicht gestartet ist. Sonst haben wir in allen Kombinationen gespielt. Alle Spieler spielen eine wichtige Rolle – egal, ob sie von Anfang an spielen oder reinkommen“, sagte Seoane.
Mit seinem Team wartet er seit Februar auf einen Heimsieg. „Wir erwarten einen richtig guten Gegner, der sehr gut gestartet ist. Aber wir sind von unseren Qualitäten überzeugt und wissen, dass wir in einem Heimspiel so spielen können, dass wir sie schlagen“, sagte Seoane und verwies auf die bisherigen Spiele gegen Bayer 04 Leverkusen (2:3) und den VfB Stuttgart (1:3) im Borussia-Park, bei denen sich die Borussen nach ordentlichen Auftritten selbst um den Lohn brachten.
„Es geht nicht nur darum, gut Fußball zu spielen. Wir wollen effizient sein und die Duelle gegen Union gewinnen, sie sind eine robuste Mannschaft“, sagte Seoane, der als Gladbach-Coach im dritten Anlauf den ersten Sieg gegen Union feiern möchte.

What does UCLA's and USC's transition to the Big Ten look like for women's volleyball?

USC and UCLA officially joined the Big Ten Conference this month, which also means the start of women’s volleyball season is drawing ever closer.
The Bruins and Trojans open their seasons Aug. 30, with their first matches against Big Ten opponents Sept. 27. The adjustment to a new conference isn’t just about getting acquainted with teams of national championship caliber — Penn State and Nebraska have each won two titles since 2013, while Wisconsin won it all in 2021. There is also the reality of adjusting to a more grueling travel schedule.
Nebraska, last season’s national runner-up and USC’s first Big Ten road opponent, is a mere 1,537 miles away. The Bruins will have conference road trips to Purdue, Northwestern, Rutgers, Maryland, Indiana and Illinois. Rutgers, at about 2,800 miles, is the farthest Big Ten institution from the L.A. schools.
Gearing up for the season while protecting the health and wellness of the athletes starts with changing how the teams will travel. Second-year UCLA coach Alfee Reft said there’ll be some charter flights, depending on the timing of competition and athletes’ schedules. Bruins athletic director Martin Jarmond recently told The Times that four charter flights have already been approved for this season, with the possibility of more.
“There are going to be some changes in how our travel looks and that’s just a great testament to how great of a commitment our administration has to our athletes,” said Reft, whose team went 18-12 last season and missed the NCAA tournament for a second straight year.
USC will also see similar changes, with a transition from commercial to charter flights for quicker and more efficient travel. Efficiency will be key for both teams. For example, the Trojans open their Big Ten slate at home against Ohio State on Sept. 27, a Friday, then play at Nebraska two days later. The Bruins, meantime, will have their Indiana and Illinois road matches on consecutive nights Nov. 22-23.
“We are still a college so we need to make sure to take care of the student-athlete as best as we can to be successful in the classroom and on the court,” said USC coach Brad Keller, whose team went 19-13 last season and lost in the second round of the NCAA tournament. “I can’t speak highly enough of the amount of support we are getting, how involved they are with a positive mindset, and the consistency in what they’re saying and how they act. Their delivery of leadership has been nothing short of phenomenal.”
The focus of these changes is centered on competitive equity, a principle in the NCAA’s constitution that says it will promote opportunity for equity in competition — such as with travel time, including waiting time in airports, that might put them at a disadvantage. These discussions occurred between the Big Ten and its volleyball coaches, including Reft, leading up to the transition.
“I put my hat off to the Big Ten and board of directors and everyone involved with the decisions,” said Reft, who also served as an assistant for the U.S. women’s volleyball team, which won silver at the Paris Olympics. “I thought it was really a collaborative effort, I thought there were a lot of outlets for feedback both with scheduling and concerns specific to us. It seems as though we’ve put a lot of legwork into making this as seamless of a transition as possible.”
Keller supports the decisions made in the transition period to the Big Ten and has worked with the USC administration to support the student-athletes as much as possible.
“Our board of trustees, our president and our AD, are on top of what we need to do for our student-athletes,” Keller said, adding: “It’s a new journey. There may be caution but at the end of the day you want to be a part of the best and that’s what we get to do.”
After the announcement of UCLA joining the conference in June 2022, the administration continued to get feedback from student-athletes on the best plan to support them in and outside the classroom. Formal meetings were even conducted between university staff, administrators, and student-athletes across sports to develop ways the university can support student-athletes, such as in travel and mental health.
“We presented challenges that may arrive, how to combat those, and what can be set up for different teams,” Bruins fifth-year middle blocker Anna Dodson said. “We laid out what coaches, trainers and nutritionists can do to help and I felt like we were heard and supported by the whole university.”
Keller looks forward to the competition and fan support that comes with the Big Ten, but still has mixed feelings on the conference move.
“I love the Pac-12, it was an incredible field of teams and amazing coaches so I was bummed about that,” Keller said, who is entering his fourth year at USC. “But you move on with that and I’m getting excited about the opportunity to be a part of one of the premiere powerhouse conferences and play against some of the best teams in volleyball.”
Reft sees opportunity in the challenge ahead.
“The Big Ten is the premiere conference for women’s volleyball,” said Reft, who served as an assistant at Minnesota from 2010-12 and Illinois from 2018-19. “We get that opportunity night in and night out playing in the Big Ten so I think our staff and team is eager to go toe-to-toe with some of the best.”
Even if it means coming off a long flight to get there.

Özbekistan'ın başkenti Taşkent'teki Orta Asya mimarisinin ender örneklerinden Hazreti İmam Külliyesi, Orta Çağ mimarisinin izlerini taşıyor.
Taşkent'in eski şehir kısmında bulunan, turistlerin gözde uğrak noktalarından Hazreti İmam Külliyesi, birçok yapıyı bir araya toplamasıyla dikkati çekiyor.Adını eski ismi Şaş olan Taşkent'te 10. yüzyılda yaşayan din alimi Ebu Bekir Kaffal eş-Şaşi'nin lakabı "Hazreti İmam"dan alan külliye, başkentin en önemli tarihi yapılarının başında geliyor.
Külliye, bünyesinde Keffal Şaşi'nin türbesi, Barakhan ve Muyi Mübarek medreseleri, Tilla Şeyh ve Hazreti İmam camilerinin yanı sıra Özbekistan Müslümanları Dini İdaresi ve İmam Buhari Taşkent İslam Enstitüsünü de bulunduruyor.Her biri farklı dönemlerde inşa edilen bu yapıların olduğu külliyenin ortasında ise aynı anda binlerce kişinin bayram namazlarını kıldığı büyük bir alan mevcut.Arka kısımda Kaffal eş-Şaşi'nin mezarı bulunuyor, külliyenin en eski yapılarından olan mezarın üzerindeki türbenin 1541'de mimar Gulam Hüseyin tarafından inşa edildiği biliniyor.
Külliyenin en eski yapılarından, 16. yüzyılda inşa edilen Barakhan Medresesi de Orta Çağ'a özgü yapısı, mimarisi ve desenleriyle Semerkant'ın tarihi medrese ve camilerini andırıyor.Toplam 34 oda, mescit, ders salonu ve geniş iç avludan oluşan Barakhan Medresesi, iki köşesindeki mavi kubbeleri ve girişteki büyük kapısı ile Orta Çağ'dan kalma Semerkant ve Buhara'daki medrese ve camileri anımsatıyor.Giriş kapısının üzerindeki yarı kubbe de Orta Asya Türk mimarisine özgü şekil veriyor, giriş kapısının iki kenarına ve üzerine işlenen mavi desenli motif ve Kur'an-ı Kerim ayetleri, medresenin bölgedeki diğer tarihi yapılara benzer izler taşıdığını gösteriyor.
Geçen yüzyılın başına kadar medrese olarak faaliyetini sürdüren yapı, eski Sovyetler Birliği döneminde işçi yurdu ve depo olarak kullanıldı. Daha sonra medrese, Özbekistan Müslümanları Dini İdaresinin ilk binası olarak kullanıldı.Çağatay Hanlığı'nın 13. yüzyılda yaşayan hanlarından Barakhan'ın türbesi de adını verdiği medresede yer alıyor. Medresedeki odalar, hediyelik eşyaların satıldığı dükkanlar olarak kullanılıyor.
Külliyede ayrıca 1856-1857 yıllarında inşa edilen Muyi Mübarek (Sakal-ı Şerif) Medresesi bulunuyor, geçmişte Hz. Muhammed'in Sakal-ı Şerif'inin muhafaza edilmesi dolayısıyla bu ismi aldığı biliniyor.Bugün müze olarak kullanılan medrese, "Osman Mushafı" olarak bilinen ve üzerine Hazreti Osman'ın kanının aktığı ceylan derisine yazılı Kur'an-ı Kerim'in muhafaza edilmesinden dolayı İslam alemi için ayrıca önem taşıyor.Bu Kuran-ı Kerim'in Timurlu Devletinin kurucusu Emir Timur tarafından 14. yüzyılda Bağdat'tan Semerkant'a getirildiği tahmin ediliyor. Rusların Orta Asya'yı ele geçirmesinin ardından 1869'da St. Petersburg'a götürülen Kur'an-ı Kerim, 1923 yılında geri getirilmesiyle Semerkant’ın ardından Özbekistan Müslümanları Dini İdaresinin müzesi olan Muyi Mübarek Medresesi'nde muhafaza ediliyor.
Külliyede ayrıca 19. yüzyılın sonunda inşa edilen Tilla Şeyh ve Özbekistan'ın bağımsızlığını kazanmasının ardından 2007'de yaptırılan Hazreti İmam camilerinin yanı sıra Özbekistan Müslümanları Dini İdaresi ile İmam Buhari Taşkent İslam Enstitüsü de bulunuyor.Taşkent İslam Enstitüsü, eski Sovyetler Birliği döneminde İslam dini üzerine eğitim veren tek yükseköğretim kurumu olmasıyla dikkati çekiyor. Enstitü, eski Sovyet cumhuriyetleri ve sosyalist ülkelerden gelen, aralarında eski Sovyetler Birliği dönemi Orta Asya ve Kazakistan Müslümanları Dini İdaresinin son Başkanı Muhammed Sadık Muhammed Yusuf, Rusya Federasyonu'na bağlı Çeçenistan'ın eski Cumhurbaşkanı Ahmet Kadirov, Kafkas Müslümanları İdaresi Başkanı Allahşükür Paşazade ve diğer din alimlerinin eğitim aldığı kurum olarak da biliniyor.
Hazreti İmam Külliyesi'ni her gün çok sayıda yerli ve yabancı turist ziyaret ediyor.

LONDON, Jan 18 — Ange Postecoglou yesterday defended Tottenham’s lack of activity in the January transfer window, saying the club is “working as hard as it can” to bring in reinforcements for his injury-hit squad.
Spurs signed goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky from Slavia Prague earlier this month but have yet to strengthen further.
Tottenham have dropped to 14th in the Premier League table before tomorrow’s trip to relegation-threatened Everton after six defeats in their past eight league games.
Postecoglou is fully aware of the work going on behind the scenes, led by technical director Johan Lange.
“It is tricky as all clubs are finding and I guess traditionally it ramps up in that final week so we’re approaching there for all clubs,” said the Spurs manager.
“The club is working as hard as it can and that’s all you can ask for. January’s not an easy month but I do know a lot of work is being done behind the scenes to try to get some reinforcements in.”
Postecoglou admitted Spurs had been interested in signing Paris Saint-Germain’s Randal Kolo Muani but the forward appears set to join Juventus on loan.
“We’ve been interested and were looking at a number of players, but did we get to the point where we thought he was coming to us? No,” Postecoglou said.
A 2-1 loss at north London rivals Arsenal on Wednesday made it one win in nine league matches for Spurs since the start of December.
Tottenham are 11 points behind sixth-placed Manchester City, but Postecoglou has no interest in discussions over whether they can still qualify for Europe.
“I just don’t look at things like that,” the Australian said. “Ultimately we’ve got to win games of football and that starts tomorrow.
“Where we end up is going to be where we end up, whether that’s realising our goals, ambitions or falling short, then time will tell.”
Spurs will have Ben Davies available to face Everton, but Timo Werner is ruled out to make it seven players definitely unavailable, while Yves Bissouma and Brennan Johnson are doubtful for the trip to Goodison Park. — AFP

Haldane: winter fuel payment cut will hit 'financially frail'

Labour's decision to stop the winter fuel payment for thousands of pensioners will hammer the 'financially frail', a former top economist warned today.
Andy Haldane said that the plan to means-test the handout to save money was 'not at all unreasonable' in principle.
But the former Bank of England chief economist said the change had been handled badly, and could have been done in a more fair way, though it would have saved less money for the Treasury.
Speaking to LBC Mr Haldane, who was a member for Tory chancellor Jeremy Hunt's economic advisory group, said the change 'didn't fit with the narrative of the broadest shoulders bearing the burden'.
'I can't see on any definition that a pensioner on £14,000 has the broadest shoulders. They're financially frail. So it felt to me that it was bad politics and probably bad economics as well,' he said.
He added: 'The principle of means testing benefits is not at all unreasonable. For millionaire pensioners it's entirely reasonable.
'So ultimately, this is a failure of design rather than of principle, and they could have changed the design while retaining the principle. It would have raised less money, but it would have got them out of the hole, but I think they've kept on digging.'
He is the latest public figure to question the cut passed by the Commons earlier this month.
Sir Keir Starmer was humiliated yesterday as unions and Labour members demanded he halt cuts to winter fuel payments for millions of pensioners.
In an embarrassing revolt as the party's annual conference in Liverpool came to a close, delegates backed a union motion calling for a U-turn on the plan.
All but the country's poorest pensioners will no longer receive the subsidy – worth up to £300 on energy bills – from this winter.
A motion tabled by Unite and the Communication Workers Union (CWU) demanded a reversal of the start of means-testing.
Unite general secretary Sharon Graham won rapturous applause as she made a powerful plea for the allowance to be restored.
'People simply do not understand, I do not understand, how our new Labour government can cut the winter fuel allowance for pensioners and leave the super-rich untouched,' she said.
'This is not what people voted for. It is the wrong decision and needs to be reversed. We are the sixth-richest economy in the world. We have the money.'
She added: 'Yes, Britain is broken. Yes, the Tories have left a mess and yes, they are to blame. But Labour is now in government, and we can't keep making everyday people pay.'
Alan Tate, of the CWU, said the winter fuel payment cut had 'overshadowed' the work of the new Labour government.
But during a brief debate, Labour member Maggie Cosin said she did not need the winter fuel payment and the money should be used to help children and others in need.
The motion was carried by a show of hands in a rowdy hall. The vote is not binding on the Government and ministers have made it clear the policy will remain despite the backlash.
Earlier, Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall defended the cuts by claiming the Government had 'done more to help the poorest pensioners in the last two months than the Tories did in 14 years'.
She said: 'The biggest-ever drive to get pensioners on pension credit, backed by our commitment to the pensions triple lock. This will increase the state pension by an estimated £1,700 this parliament, with an extra £6 billion of funding forecast next year.'

Civilians flee key Ukrainian city as Russia's army bears down in the east

Civilians with small children in their arms and lugging heavy suitcases fled Monday from Ukraine’s eastern city of Pokrovsk, where the Russian army was bearing down fast despite a lightning Ukrainian incursion into Russia’s Kursk region.
Local authorities said Russian forces were advancing so quickly that families were under orders to leave the city and other nearby towns and villages starting Tuesday. About 53,000 people still live in Pokrovsk, officials said, and some of them decided to get out immediately.
Some people wept as they waited for trains and buses to depart. Soldiers helped the elderly with their bags, and volunteers helped people with disabilities. Rail workers wore bulletproof vests.
Natalya Ivaniuk said the noise of explosions from Russian bombardments filled the air while she and her daughters, ages 7 and 9, fled their home in the nearby village of Myrnohrad, which is less than six miles from the front line.
“It was terrifyingly scary,” she said. “We barely got out.”
Pokrovsk is one of Ukraine’s main defensive strongholds and a key logistics hub in the Donetsk region. Its capture would compromise Ukraine’s defensive abilities and supply routes and would bring Russia closer to its stated aim of capturing the entire Donetsk region.
One of Ukraine’s attempts to ease the pressure on its eastern front was the unexpected Aug. 6 incursion into Russia’s Kursk region. Among other goals, the incursion was intended to unnerve the Kremlin and compel it to split its military resources.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Sunday the cross-border attack was also aimed at trying to create a buffer zone that might prevent further attacks by Moscow across the border, especially with long-range artillery, missiles and glide bombs. That operation was continued Monday under tight secrecy.
Russia’s relentless six-month slog across Ukraine’s Donetsk region following the capture of Avdiivka has cost it heavily in troops and armor. However, the onslaught has gradually paid dividends as Ukrainian defenders have no choice but to pull back from positions blown to pieces by Russian artillery, missiles and bombs.
“There is a lot of destruction around us, so it becomes more and more scary to stay,” said Tetiana Myronenko, 57, who came from Selydove, just three miles from the front line.
She sat next to her husband in the car of a train waiting to leave Pokrovsk. It was bound for Lviv, hundreds of miles away in western Ukraine.
Russia wants control of all parts of Donetsk and neighboring Luhansk, which together make up the Donbas industrial region.
Officials warned last week that Russian forces were rapidly advancing and were six miles from the outskirts of Pokrovsk.
Oleksandr Syrskyi, Ukraine’s commander-in-chief, said Monday that “heavy battles” were taking place in the Pokrovsk area.
The nearby town of Toretsk, whose capture would open the door for a Russian advance on the key stronghold of Chasiv Yar from the south, is also under heavy pressure, he said.
The Institute for the Study of War said Russian forces have been advancing roughly 0.8 square miles per day in the Pokrovsk region over the last six months.
They have relied on frontal infantry assaults from village to village, notching incremental progress with their personnel and materiel advantages, the Washington-based think tank said late Sunday.
Pokrovsk officials were meeting with residents to provide them with logistical details on the evacuation. People were offered shelter in western Ukraine, where they will be hosted in dormitories and separate houses prepared for them.
In other developments:
A pregnant woman was killed and 10 others were wounded by Ukrainian shelling in the Russian-occupied city of Donetsk, the region’s Moscow-installed head, Denis Pushilin, said on social media. Two children were among the injured, he said.
In the Russian city of Proletarsk, about 170 miles from the Ukraine border, 41 firefighters needed medical attention, and 18 of them were hospitalized, after a fire at a warehouse that was started by debris from an intercepted drone, regional Gov. Vasily Golubev said.
